Hopefully no more buy outs either so we get that $1.92mill back as well from Neal. Although some nights the thought of a Nurse buy out is tempting lol Ah crap. guess our bonus carry over is $3,550,000 total. Includes Perry I guess. So, $950,000 extra cap space for the next GM to work with Then Bouch and Drai extensions to deal with the next year. Really hope we can make this current cup run count! I think the Phoenix move to Salt Lake City will change the cap landscape. It might save Draisaitl, even at 12. Depends on if we find a way to spend all our increased cap space for 2025-26 this summer by finding the next Connor Browns...

We are next level screwed if we don't get a GM now that can properly manage the cap.

Imagine Holland trying to improve this team next year with 900k of space. He probably just immediately signs Corey for 900k base and a 3M bonus for achieving 1 microsecond of ice time.
