I thought Neal was costing 6.25?
- K-man25
Technically Neal's cap hit is $5.75M, but if you want to include the cost of doing business (Lucic's 12.5%), the net cost is over $6M. Regardless of the arithmetic, my point was that the Oilers will at least be spending that money on a top 6 forward. The Flames are willing to spend that amount of money on a 3rd-4th line forward. In today's cap climate, that not smart spending. The Oilers should know... they're spending $4M on Russell as a 5-6 d-man. Also not smart...
