can someone please show the breakdown of how this will affect the cap? I'm horrible with buyouts.

That seems like a poor use of funds. 3MM + a 2nd Round pick for a 3rd Line Center?
Have we given up on Cousins being that guy?
I just don't see Cousins as a center on a shut-down line--particularly not if it also has Laughton. They really need a vet there to take some of the defensive zone starts from the top six.
The Flyers still won't have a ton of cap space. With Vinny (probable 250 thousand penalty) and Umberger, the Flyers will have $13.4 to sign 4 forwards and 2 defensemen. Gudas and Schenn will probably eat up close to $8 of that leaving only around $5.4 with 4 spots to fill.That 3 million and one of our 2nd rounders could fetch us a good #3 C in a trade.
If they need a shutdown, its going to be Couturier, regardless of situation or line. There is a strong possibility the Flyers will not have a better defensive C on this team for a long time.

It's more about having a bottom six that is at least capable in their own zone. As it is right now, the top six is forced into being used in more defensive situations.
The Flyers still won't have a ton of cap space. With Vinny (probable 250 thousand penalty) and Umberger, the Flyers will have $12.5 to sign 4 forwards and 2 defensemen. Gudas and Schenn will probably eat up close to $8 of that leaving only $4.5 with 4 spots to fill.

Schenn* - Giroux - Simmonds
Raffl - Couturier - Voracek
Laughton - ????? - Read
Bellemare - ???? - VdV

MDZ - Gudas*
MacDonald - Gostisbehere
Provorov - Streit
Schultz
Looks like 3 spots, and I suspect that Schenn and Gudas come in close to $7.5m, leaving $5m
3C = $3m
Cousins = ~925k
13th forward = 700k?
That still leaves about a half million, no?
