So are they not signing their key players? Is Tkachuk going to sign for $5M? They still have to make some moves. Their situation isn't dire, but I don't think they get there by sending a couple players down....especially if Tkachuk gets something similar or higher than Aho.They have 10m in capspace with 11f, 8d and 2 goalies signed. Its not an issue, send a couple players down and they will be fine. People really need to look at how many players teams have on their NHL roster and not only the total cap hit.
It's an issue when one of those forwards is looking to taken 7.5 of that 10 million.They have 10m in capspace with 11f, 8d and 2 goalies signed.

thats why the article is says "Still"They were in a cap crunch pre Lucic trade too.
No one's mentioned Tkachuk getting offersheeted except for you...Cue the " Tkachuk offersheet" thread?
Edit: Scroll further down the page....and there it is!!
They're piling up all of these contracts and yet have the stones to come to the overtaxed residents of Calgary and demand money for their new arena. They brought all of this on themselves and I'm not shedding any tears over this predicament.
But the subject doesn't. Which is what people are commenting on.thats why the article is says "Still"
Sorry....usually the minute someone mentions "cap crunch"...the poaching of said team's great young players becomes the thought. And not surprisingly, there is a Tkachuk offersheet thread.No one's mentioned Tkachuk getting offersheeted except for you...

Unsure why people say they arent in a cap crunch.
When people in threads say "oh they are fine, they just have to trade this guy and that guy and send these guys down and then will be able to hopefully afford the RFA signings" is a definate sign of cap issues.
Its not that easy
So people are just commenting without reading the post? No wonder they are confused, they deserve to be arguing against a brick wall.thats why the article is says "Still"
Isnt buyout window closed?Stone buyout seems like the best solution right now, he’s their 4th best RHD making over 3M for 1 year.
Then go with a tight roster for the deadline.
Should result in enough space to sign their guys.
