Sedins $14M coming off the books, along with Higgins/Hansen and possibly Guds/Vanek.
Also the Cap is expected to rise by another $5m - $7M.
There are potentially only 2 or 3 TOP UFAs available this summer
... and a lot of teams will have a lot of cap-room.
So Eastvander should land a HUGE contract.
He has made it clear in the past that Vancouver is his preferred destination.
This will help GMJB, but he'll still have to "overpay" in typical top-UFA-signing fashion.
As we all know, EK is an asshole... and our Canucks are lacking in that department.
The chance that we might land a goal-scoring top-six ASSHOLE
... well it makes me positively giddy.
And the only asset we would have to give up is a coupla mill in cap-space overpay per year.
