Our 2 top lines are stacked. The New WCE era is gonna begin, and hopefully bring a cup.

So we will have .69 million in cap space left if Sundin decides to sign? Wouldn't that be $690,000 and not 69k like some of you are saying?

Take Ovechkin for example, his rookie contract had a base amount of 0.984m per season with a 2.85m bonus, his cap hit was 3.834m. I think there may be a rule where we can go over the cap limit cause of the bonus but I'm not sure by how much. I don't know the exact rule on that but I do recall something like that

Did I miss some math?
We had $20M+ of cap space at the start of free agency... Demitra is getting $4M; Bernier is taking $2.5M, so there's $6.5M. If Sundin takes $10M, that leaves $3.5M... I know there are a couple of other minor pickups in there, but three-and-a-half mill worth?

I prefer keeping him and ideally would prefer more D-men with strong point shots to open up the ice down low for the forwards. Salo, shot or no shot will almost always require an opposing player to play high on the D.

Salo is injury prone and I'd like to see him shipped off. He has a NTC though so that really limits who we can trade to. Bieksa doesn't have a NTC so that's the main reason why people want him traded.
