That'll fuck up our cap. Nonetheless, the preference in putting cap priority on offense is just another personal preference by mine. I just love offensive teams that much over defensive ones.

Why would that fuck up our cap? Ohlund made 3.5 Million last year. If we can sign Boumeester to a contract of say 6.5 mill per year that would only raise our cap by 3 Mill since Ohlund is going to be gone.
Signing Boumeester isn't going to hurt our offense but improve it even more. Great offensive teams need good puck moving d-men.
