Not sure if asked and answered already, but given that the Oilers would be $7.2 million over the $88-million salary cap if the deals were matched, how long are they allowed to be over the cap or is it rather just a compliance issue for day 1 of the regular season? Just curious about whether they can wait and see about the “temporary relief” for Kane's cap hit if he starts the season on LTIR (while recognizing they still would have to clear additional cap space above and beyond that but what is the true deadline on dealing with the overage issue).
