Are the Oilers having trouble signing Ryan McLeod?

I mean they're close to 7 million over the cap right now. Even with Smith's and Klefbom's long term injuries against it they're 300 k roughly over the cap and they need to sign Mcleod who's probably going to be asking for well over a mil. And they're going to add lets say another 750k to that.

So around 2.5 over. If they sign Mcleod and Virtannan, that puts them at 13 forwards.

Honestly Holland would put his team over a barrel. If I was a GM and he called me to dump Foegele my price would be Edmonton's first round pick or Holloway. I would absolutely gut him to save his cap.
