They are sitting on 10mil with at least 6 contracts to sign (which would be a 20 man roster). They can buy out soup for a short term bit of cap relief, which would be a real problem for the wonder twins contract years, but then they would need another goalie signed too.

While I’m never happy to see the greasers find success, the beauty of this run of theirs is that several of their players that need contracts had good individual performances, driving that price up. “Pieces of the future” like Broberg and Holloway drove their price up in the finals, and there just isn’t much money to spread out, especially if their rfa’s get paid. And they’ve raided their cupboards repeatedly meaning they don’t have any young up and comers to make an impact on ELC’s.

Plus there is no way you see either of the duhnamic duo accept less than Mathews money. So if they aren’t careful they will be unable to even offer spearsaitl enough to stay. And if they do but there isn’t another massive cap jump, they won’t be able to afford McNopersonality.
