Only about $1 million of the Weber Cap relief left if we sign KK, Lehkonen and Perry A trade is surely in the works. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My guess for KK ($3.5), Lehkonen ($2.8) and Perry ($1) may be a little off, but that still only leaves about $2m and we need that for call ups, etc. Edited July 28, 2021 by titanfan EDIT to fix Lehkonen number Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
titanfan Posted July 28, 2021 Author Share Posted July 28, 2021 Capgeek shows $973,630 left for Cap Space. Still to sign as RFAs: KK Lehkonen As UFA: Perry Potential Cap Relief for Weber: $7.857 If my number are accurate for KK, Leks and Perry - we have $1.5 million left after Weber Cap Relief.

I would be shocked ... especially if Hoffman signs and we have million and millions on the 4th line wings. KK and Perry seem in the ballpark to me.

That seems more reasonable and likely pretty darn close to what Lehkonen will get. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TurdBurglar Posted July 28, 2021 Share Posted July 28, 2021 What if KK and Leks are pieces in a potential Eichel trade? They haven’t been signed because of sign and trades? KK + Leks + roster players with salary + picks. No rumour, just a thought. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sir_Boagalott Posted July 28, 2021 Share Posted July 28, 2021 I'm confused and bummed as to why Perry hasn't been resigned yet. It kinda reminds me of when the Habs lost Kovalev because he didnt resign quick enough and Gainey had to get somebody before other teams signed the available players. I certainly hope that isnt the case with Perry. I want to see him return for sure, but maybe he is considering retirement? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I tend to view MB signing Paquete as a replacement for Perry - not that he replaces him, he just takes up 1 spot. i.e. I have the impression that MB has signed too many Forwards now to bring Perry back.

TurdBurglar Posted July 28, 2021 Share Posted July 28, 2021 I'm sure I'm reading this wrong, but Capfriendly is showing Montreal has $973k free before the Weber LTIR. Thats nearly $9m in cap space in reality, enough for KK, Leks and could take on another $3m-$4m as I don't see KK and Leks getting more than $6m combined Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now if they can get those guys cheaper then maybe an extra milion.... Based on what they made last year this is what can be expected: KK - $3.5 Lehkonen - $2.8 Perry $1 That is $7.3 Weber is only $7.8 (not $9) So $0.5 plus $900,000 is $1.4. KK might make a little less, but Perry might make closer to $1.5.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
