1) Trading away: Killorn and Paquette who do not have NTC
2) Let go: Sattenkirk, Maroon, Rutta
3) Sign Sergachev, Cirelli and Cernak under 12M
Expected new contracts:
Sergachev = 5M
Cirelli = 4M
Cernak = 3M
Forwards:
Stamkos (8.5M) - Point (6.8M) - Kucherov (9.5M) = 24.8M
Palat (5.3M) - Cirelli (4M) - Johnson (5M) = 14.3M
Verhaeghe (1M) - Coleman (1.8M) - Gourde (5.2M) = 8M
Volkov (1M) - Stephens (1M) - Joseph (1M) = 3M
Total 12 forwards = 50.1M
Defense:
Hedman (7.9M) - Sergachev (5M) = 12.9M
McDonagh (6.8M) - Cernak (3M) = 9.8M
Coburn (1.7M) - Foote (1M) = 2.7M
Total 6 d-men = 25.4M
Goalies:
Vasilevskiy = 9.5M
McElhinney = 1.3M
Total 2 goalies = 10.8M
Total 20 contracts = 86.3M
Contracts are rounded up. So it's really ~ 85M
Assuming the salary cap goes up to 85M we should be ok.
If it's lower then something else should be done.
Cirelli is a prime offer sheet target. up to 4.2 - 6.3 is only a 1st + 3rd
also you are assuming the cap goes up 3.5, the bolts only have 20 guys, and they are STILL over lol.
gonna need another move in your scenario
