That would definitely get it done (IMO). I still think that one wouldn't have to go that high to sign a rookie with only 10g and 12a in his rookie campaign... but I think any number above 3-3.5 should get it done.

My guess is that they start with a D to try and trade out. If they punt one of Harley, Dumba, or Lyubushkin then that frees up 3-4 mill. But then they have to turn around and immediately give some of that to Lundkvist who is going to want a raise on his $1.25M. It gives them enough room to sign some players but not enough to match a big raise on Bourque.
After that they either are moving Marchment or ... Seguin? It starts to get dicy to pull off the generic comment of "make a trade or two".
