But hey, that is what you get when you fall into a self-imposed cap hell structure that you are 100% responsible for.
Dubas has got to be one of the worst GMs in hockey.

Agreed he has been absolutely brutal. Pretty much the opposite as Treliving when it comes to RFA’s.
Nylander sits until December only to be overpaid by Dubas
Matthews is signed early in a deal that in my opinion has truly ruined the second contract for RFA’s. Yes the Oilers raised the bar with McDavid and Draisaitl but at least they maxed out the term (both deals look fine today much like the 6x6 they handed out years ago). Giving Matthews the second highest cap hit in the league and buying a single UFA year was beyond brutal.
I hope the Flames get Tkachuk done before they do something equally as brutal with Marner.
