If we trade Cammy, Stajan, Stempniak, Butler, etc. then we will have to go hard after UFAs like Statsny, Michalek, Moulson, Kulemin, Vrbata, etc. just to reach the salary cap floor of around 45 million.
replace the above veterans with Hanowski, Reinhart, Knight and Wotherspoon and run with a 20 million team then it would be a great way to rebuild and get top picks. But gotta have vets...............
I mean, we're already sitting at 36 million for next season... Yogi will need a new contract, Boums and Galiardi will as well, that's probably around another 4 million; I'd like to see Russell return in Calgary too, he'd make one hell of a third pairing guy if we actually got some real first pairing players, there's another 1.5-2.2 million... 3.5-2.8 million is not overly hard to find in free agency.
Paul Stastny, Dion Phaneuf, Ryan Callahan and even resigning Matt Stajan are guys, that I know, will get a loooonnnnggg look by the Feaster/Weisbrod/Burke team.
