This is true, but we have to remember the Seider and Raymond extensions will be coming soon. That being said, I still think we should go for it, Steve will get a number that works for Cat and us.
Yes but also consider the cap is going up by at least 4 million next year and we just terminated Zadina's contract. We need the goals BAD and every other team (Vegas and Toronto specifically come to mind) just end up finding a way to circumvent the cap. Stevie should be moving mountains to bring him in.
I'd love to see Yzerman get it done, but in a way that makes sense. DeBrincat wants a long term -- we can't handcuff ourselves for 7 or 8 years with a contract that doesn't make sense.

The wings still have 9m in cap space, so it could happen. It would be the first sign this off-season that they are actually trying to get better.
