You don't want to acknowlege their cap is 92 million this upcoming season?

$7 million William cap hit - 7 goals 20 assists

Anyhoo. Barrie wants to play in Vancouver after this season in Toronto. Can we make room for Barrie?

Let's stop with the offersheet stuff. It ain't happening.Marner already turned down about 10 million per from the Leaves.
Some would say, that indicates he wants more.

About right. I acknowledge it. Then they could field a team. If it was allowed.

Meaning they're going to match any offersheet in my opinion.

If there is a monster offersheet they'll just have to trade a forward like Johnsson/Kapanen/Nylander.
Can they match? It'll put them $11-12 million over the cap, exceeding the 10% off-season limit.

I would think this means they are for sure not resigning Marner until the season starts and they can use LTIR.

Still going with that fantasy? There will be no offersheets for Mitchy

They're going for the 4 fist round picks because they know the defense and goaltending isn't good enough to win a cup anyway. Since Taveras is aging rapidly now and Mathews is going to Arizona after his current contract expires, they are kick starting their impending rebuild now...

Dub-ass is a fucking genius and Shanny Shines like a frog stealing water from the bird bath on a sunny summer morning.

Dubas needs to sign 4th liners for 3-4 million, That's the key to great cap management.

Beagle 3M
Rousell 3M
Schaller 1.9M
Leivo 1.5
Motte 975,000

So what’s your point?

Canucks cap. Just under 5.1. Rousell starts the season on IR cap 3M

Waive Schaller, save 1M on cap
Waive one more save another 1M on cap

Waive one D save another 1M on cap

Suddenly we have 8M with 3M available on LTIR if we need it. Our cap is fine. Notwithstanding that Benning will find a way to move out someone.

Fuck all of Toronto, love Karma, she can be a bitch sometimes.
