People need to understand our cap situation too ...
If we give Petry a long term deal at $4.5 mill per and then ink Schultz to a bridge deal for 2-3 years at $3 mill per ... we're only left with about $2-$3 mill in cap with no contracts really coming off the books next summer and Yakupov and Marincin both coming up as RFAs.
Now you can pray the cap increase covers everything, but there's no guarantee of that.
You can't be throwing around long term deals on everyone like you're giving away candy on Halloween.
