During the off-season they can exceed the cap by 10%, which they haven't done yet.

Once the season starts, Weber's $7.8 million will be on permanent LTIR, because he's not playing again. And remember, they only took on his contract because Montreal demanded that for taking on Dadonov.

Add on Lehner's $5 million, and they'll have enough room to fill out the roster at league minimum. But they'll be a shadow of the team they thought they would be when they picked up Eichel.

Dadonov, Pacioretty, Janmark, and Lehner all gone for nothing or less than nothing. Woof!
