Both are bury-able at up to $1.05 Mill each,meaning only a few 10k of Brodziak and $1.whatever mil of Manning count against the cap

It drives me mad when the Edmonton media say that we have $3M in cap space, when they should know full well that we can bury $1,075,000 per player, in the AHL. The team could easily free up $3M in cap on AHL-send-downs alone. It's always attached to some excuse for Hollowe's poor performance in the offseason.

At the beginning of the offseason, the team had $8,908,001 in cap space, and could have cleared another $2,725,000 by sending Persson, Brodziak, and Cave down. That's a total of $11,633,001.

Current: $2,933,001
Smith: $2,000,000
Granlund: $1,300,000
Archibald: $1,000,000
Nygard: $925,000
Jurco: $750,000
Beginning of Free Agency: $8,908,001

Brodziak: $1,150,000
Cave: $675,000
Person: $1,000,000
Potential at beginning of Free Agency: $11,633,001

Current Potential Cap

Current: $2,933,001

Send Down (need two goalies, can't send Mike down)

Granlund: $1,300,000
Archibald: $1,000,000
Nygard: $925,000
Jurco: $750,000
Brodziak: $1,150,000
Cave: $675,000
Person: $1,000,000
Potential: $9,633,001

Really, if we signed two $4M guys and kept one of these dudes up, the team would be much better. But Hollowe did not do that and he could have.

Problem with burying a player is that the bulk of that "savings" just goes to their replacement on the 23-man roster. If Manning gets demoted, and we call up Bear in his stead, then our cap hit is reduced only by $400K - and Bear's just about the cheapest option we have too.

As for the signing - well - we sure have a lot of bottom-six forwards now.

The Oilers now have the 6th least amount of cap space remaining (and should be less, since Capfriendly is listing Puljujarvi as one of our 23-man roster currently) and with 49/50 contracts, we don't have a tonne of space for any other signings this year (although if Broberg is in Europe and Rodrigue is in junior then we have two more spots available for a late summer signing or for inking a successful PTO guy.
