Question in regards to the cap. Could this team not do whatever they need to get under the cap in day 1. Holloway/Broberg on roster for bonuses. One of Malone/McKegg. Waive Foegele. 12 Forwards. 7 Dman. 2 Goalies. 21 man roster?
Then once they are under the cap after day 1. Recall Foegele. Send Malone to AHL. Send 7th Dman to AHL. Run a 20 man roster. 12 Forwards. 6 Defense. 2 Goaltenders.
It wouldnt be ideal obviously but then they could play Foegele + Janmark + Ryan.
If Broberg or Nemo dont outplay Murray, maybe they both just get sent to the AHL. If one of them outplay Murray, then Murray gets sent to the AHL.
I think they would be under the cap with a 20 man roster?
Also wouldnt be surprised if someone gets injured during training camp to give them time to figure out their cap.
