Lets assume all of this is true, then next year they have:
Nuge McDavid Hyman
Kane Draisaitl Holloway
Tanev Ryan 4th Liner
(Tanev made 3.5 mil last year so him plus your definition of 4th Liner, is 500k too much but I will give you that)
4th Liner 4th Liner 4th Liner
Scrub Scrub
Bouchard Ekholm
Nurse Ceci
Kulak Broberg
Skinner
1.5 mil
Backup
Their bottom 8 fwds consists of:
Brandon Tanev type of player
Derek Ryan
4 - 4th Liners
2 - scrubs
Maybe one of the scrubs is a d-man so they have an extra one of those.
Their depth is going to be brutal next year, there is a reason they termed this year cup or bust.
And they busted.
