The leaves have set themselves up nicely. 4.5 million for Kadri, 5 million for Rielly. All through their prime years. Great start @ cap management.
Six years is alotta term for a Nazi 'Party Animal' Kadri.
(won't be long now...)
Rielly's contract might turn out to be okay for your Leaves.
Horton is on the books for 4 more years @ $5.3M.
(put him on LTIR and all bonuses to young players are applied to the following season's cap)
Same deal with Lupul's $5.25M this year and next.
Signing Martin this past summer to $2.5 X 4 years was dumb.
Leaves will be paying $1.2M of Kessel's salary for another 6 years.
Next year, for not playing with the team, Gleason gets $1.33M and Cowen gets $750K.
All of that counting towards the cap.
But hey if you're happy, that's the main thing!
Lupul will be on LTIR.
Martin @ 2.5 million was fine. Erikkson at 6 million per. Now that's dumb!
Andersen is 18th in goalie salaries. That doesn't seem like he's overpaid, does it?
A lot of the issues you bring up will be gone when the young players get paid.
They're in a great situation. What young team has a better cap situation BTW?
