Next year is essentially a flat cap year for them because of Brown / Perry bonuses.
The year after they have Draisaitl and Bouchard looking for new contracts. Assume Draisaitl gets around 13 mil, that is a 4.5 mil increase. Bouchard is at 3.9 mil and will likely want around 10, so about a 6 mil increase. Those two alone is more than the cap will go up. Assume they keep them and surround them with garbage, then McDavid and Skinner need a new contract.
Unless they pay somebody to take Campbell and Kane it will tough to put together any depth at all.

They're going to either have to start shedding dead money contracts which will cost high picks, or useful secondary players that still have any positive value.
This is the best the team will be for a very long time.
Don't #### up!
