As for cap overrage: I'll go Google it - but in the meantime, what are the penalties for being over the cap?

You can go over in the summer, but you have to always be compliant in the regular season, even if it means they need to reduce the roster size to make it work. You might remember the Flames and a couple other teams having some games with 17-18 man rosters for the last couple of the season a few years back.
There's a few things that can be done to get us compliant - some of those contracts can be sent to the minors where most or all of their cap isn't applicable. We can LTIR someone - almost certainly Kane if he is still here and has off-season surgery. And of course trades - so hopefully someone sees the value in Ceci and needs him on their roster. I already miss Arizona.
Also I believe there's a second buy-out window late this year. Again, far from ideal if we go that route, but it is an option.
