I'm curious to see what gymnastics they'll go through to get cap compliant.
With Muzzin on LTIR (which he's already on to respect the 10% over the cap that they have to respect in the off-season), it leaves them $6,756,450 over the cap.
Buying out Murray will save them $4M.
Choosing that option leaves them $2,756,450 over the cap.
If his medical situation justifies it, they could save another $687,500 by choosing that option.
That would leave them $2,068,950 over the cap with a 22-player roster.
They could go to a 20-player roster by waiving/burying Timmins and Lafferty, which would put them $81,050 under the cap.
But if they're forced to buy out Murray (if his health is good enough for them not to be allowed to use LTIR), they would be $606,450 over the cap with a 20-player roster...
What to do, what to do ???
