Read earlier in the thread.

VITEK VANECEK #41
New Jersey Devils
Goaltender
Cap Hit: $3,400,000

JACOB MARKSTRÖM #25
Calgary Flames
Goaltender
Cap Hit: $6,000,000

Difference is $2.6 M

Add in

The illustrious Curtis Lazar @ $1M
Or Nathan Bastien @ $1.35M

&

MICHAEL McLEOD #20
New Jersey Devils
Centre
Cap Hit: $1,400,000


It becomes $0.2M to -$0.15M

The Devils have $0.275 in cap place & would need to pay for roster spots, but Dougie Hamilton is on $LTIR indefinitely & Timo Meier so they are accruing cap space daily.

The only question is if the Flames retain or not because they can only retain 2 out of 4 of (Tanev, Hanifin, Markstrom, Lindholm)
