They barely have enough cap space to fill the 6 open holes on their roster for next season and that’s IF they bridge Bouchard rather than pay him the probable 9 or 10 million per he’ll be looking for.
How in the blue hell did they think they could fit $12+ million of Rantanen’s salary under the cap without completely gutting their roster? They’d have to pay someone to take Nurse and probably would have to offload another at least $5 million on top of that from somewhere else. Just non-sensical.
