Eichel's raise is included in those numbers. Reinhart will probably take a 3 year deal for maybe 4 mil per - on the high end. Lehner probably doesn't figure long term. Beyond that, no one is due for a raise

I'd be shocked if "Lenner" is back... And also not shocked. Because this team is a cluster(frank).

The year we decided to not re-sign him,
I thought he was gonna be moved up to the Sabres to be their 4th line center

Never understood that

I think we brought in some scrub Vet instead

Schaller didn’t want to resign here.
He wanted the opportunity to play for Boston.

Are you serious about Shaq ? What in gods name did he do ? Flash is the only reason why we won in 06

And I have no hate on James he’s the GOAT

Wade can't win on his own, it's blindingly obvious.

He definitely played on the wing, maybe not the whole time, but he definitely played on the wing.

Lehner is interesting for sure. He's coming off a few show me years, and is going to be asking for a long term deal and a raise. I think he ends up filing for arbitration, but I hope they just move him.

Add all these up, and sign a few vets to round out the roster, and you're comfortably under the cap, but closer to it than a really bad team should be.

There really isn't a lot to add up though. 24 mil to replace pouliot, Kane, give Reinhart a raise, and there are already 6 dmen under contract for next year. Then the next year, 12 mil more in space opens up.
