You couldn’t sign Kadri on July 1 for 4x$7M either.
Coleman’s UFA after next season.
Eight teams currently have $8M+ in cap space, and the cap is going to continue to rise now that it has 32 real NHL teams instead of 31 and a cap laundromat.
Huberdeau isn’t going anywhere, but everyone else can move without too much pain.

You are ignoring NTCs etc though. Coleman could be moved in his last year. Kadri will be hard unless he is open to waiving to multiple teams. I’d also keep Weegar if they move Andersson. Good to have one decent vet around. They also need cap to hit the floor so some vets will be on the team regardless. They aren’t sitting on 20 million of cap in an attempt to get into playoffs. I bet Conroy went into the season expecting a bottom ten to bottom five finish.
