Rossi is the kind of player that Conroy has targetted though. He's a pending RFA, but Calgary can sign him.
Minnies problem is they only have $350K in cap space despite their highest salary being $9M to Kaprizov. It's because they pay $14M in buyout to Suter and Parise (a problem which disappears for the most part after this season). They do have the ability to use LTIR with Zuccarello and Brodin though.

I wonder, can they trade a buyout contract? We could take one of those against our cap if they wanted a roster player.
