who has room to sign players beyond $1M or less contracts? Assuming they operate on a full 23 man roster

Vegas still needs to trade away salary
Arizona needs to unload salary
Montreal small unload
Edmonton small unload
Islanders might need to move salary
St Louis needs to unload
Tamps Bay
Toronto
Vancouver

Washington
Winnipeg
Vegas

space to take on salary
Detroit
Ottawa
LA
Florida
New Jersey
Rangers

Other teams may have some space where traded salary is a gain to them of about $1M-$2M and they would still be good.

Some of the teams might be able to get by on a 21 man roster.

Bruins won’t spend their 11 million remaining on DeBrusk and Gryz.

In a simulation
I'm kind of surprised that the following players have yet to sign...

...Mike Hoffman
Evgeni Dadonov
Anthony Duclair
Mikael Granlund
Carl Soderberg
Sami Vatanen
Travis Hamonic

Some teams might end up with bargains by being patient.

I would also say that Alex Galchenyuk is an interesting reclamation project if someone could get him on a one year deal for less than 2 million.

those guys probably expecting better offers but are suprised at the low rate thanks to covid 19 and the uncertainty of next year, so teams are offering less some teams just want to spend to the cap floor and don't want any big contracts apparently.

The Devils still need to sign there RFA's Bratt, Merkley, Blackwood, and White i doubt that takes up 18 million of the space they have left but still New Jersey shouldn't take the cap they have for granted it is amazing how quick your salary cap can just vanish
