I'm saying that the only team that will be near the Cap Floor is going to be the Hurricanes. That will also vanish if the sign Staal, where Staal said he would welcome a return.

If so yea go for it, but note that there really is one team that is going to be near the cap floor.

The Yotes have 10 roster spots to fill and 20 million to reach the floor with a lot of arbitration RFAs. That's 2 million per spot. They are going to make it past the floor.

Okay what are the other teams?

Correction. Cap floor is 55 million so the Yotes only need 15 million to reach it.

But come on are the Yotes really going to spend less than 1.5 million per player and the Devils less than 1.25?

Here are teams below the cap. Only the Devils, Yotes and Hurricanes are floor teams.

Winnipeg Jet
Calgary Flames
Buffalo Sabres
New Jersey Devils
Carolina Hurricanes
Arizona Coyotes

Lowest was the Winnipeg Jets at 59 million.

The Yotes where at 60 million (with Pronger).

You don't think a team with a bazillion cap space would take him for a pick? Doesn't have to be team getting to floor.

Just like I said the Canes are the only real option. But Eric Staal could ruin it.

The only time that Cap Space becomes useful is with trades during the season as LTIR is a use it or loose it. You'll still save 5 million at midway through the season to add a player for the Wings.

You'll get 2.5 million right away from the trade and another max of 5 million during the season (that goes down to zero at the end of the season).

I was motivated...that was country roads too, if I'd had a flat or lost steam I'd have been up poop's creek. Never even thought of that. No cells then, no cash, didn't even know how to change a bike flat back then, even if I had gear with me lol...man that was dumb. But I got laid!

If the wings wish to spend datsyuk cap hit (you'd think they would) getting pronger would negate that. If they trade datsyuk cap hit for pronger cap hit they take the ability to spend that cap hit away.

They only take it away during the season. They can spend away during the offseason. You're allowed to go over.

“I think I can definitely be a No. 1 centreman, a franchise centreman in the NHL,” Matthews said. “Like an Anze Kopitar, or Jonathan Toews. Those are two guys I really like to watch. I admire the way they compete.
