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.

Play around with the cap friendly team building app. It shows what Holland could have done. It's brutal what he got accomplished. It also made me hate the Sekera buyout a little bit less. Then, it made me hate Holland for not really doing much with the space it cleared...

2015/2016 - This Kool-Aid tastes like McDavid flavoured Drain-O.
2016/2017 - This Kool-Aid is starting to taste like juice.
2017/2018 - I'm drinking this Kool-Aid, in hopes that it's Drain-O.
2018/2019 - Another round of Drain-O, good sir!
