He’s far from can’t miss, but that run he had looked like he was a star in the making. Still haven’t given up on the kid. I hope he pots the missed opportunities this year. I don’t how we can afford him if he does break out though. Same for JP.

It's a valid concern. Other years there was always some low hanging fruit like Russeel's $4M+, Neal, and whatever, but looking at it now, there's not much. Koskinen's $4.5 comes off, but I have to hope we will be spending around that much on an actual goalie at some point. Maybe Keith and his $5.5M retire? Trade Kassian? There's no easy way to give a huge raise to JP or Yamomoto, let alone both.
Also, that $4.166 in dead space really sucks. That's 5% of our cap gone.
