Colorado would be about $150k over with Kadri in the lineup for a playoff game.
Olofsson(1.75) - MacKinnon(12.6) - Necas(6.5)
Lekhonen(4.5) - Nelson(7.5) - Nichushkin(6.125)
Landeskog(7) - Kadri(7) - Colton(4)
Kelly(0.825) - Drury(1.725) - Kiviranta(1.25)

Total: $60.775M

Towes(7.25) - Makar(9)
Manson(4.5) - Burns(1)
Girard(5) - Malinski(1.4)

Total: $28.15M

Blackwood(5.25)
Wedegwood(1.5)

Total: $6.75M

Team total: $95.675M; Cap limit: $95.5M

Assuming O'Connor's $2.5M, either stays on LTIR, or goes the other way in a trade. Colorado could always just dress Posch(0.8725) as the backup. Play Achan(0.775) instead of Malinski/Burns/Girard on D; or even play one of Brindley(0.95) and Bardakov(0.8675) ahead of Kriviranta. Not to mention that Landeskog's injury remains uncertain.
