The Oilers have 3 Cap mistakes right now.
Spefically Nurse has a caphit of 9.25 million
Campbell has a caphit of 3.85 (rest buried in AHL)
So that is roughly 13 million for Nurse and Campbell.
And 2 more years of James Neal for 2 million
So 16 million for retired Neal, AHL Campbell and Top 4 Nurse.
Nurse is in our top 4, plays over 20 a night and is definitely overpaid. But he's easily a 5 million dollar dman on any team. So I'll argue the Oilers have 10 million in wasted cap space:
3.85 for Campbell
2 for Neal
4 for Nurse
How many teams have less than 10 million in wasted cap space and poor contracts? This would include players with bad contracts, buried players and buyouts.
