Exactly, we might have enough space to fit Plekanec and Price salaries (probably not Halak's) next year...
But really, will this even help the team to be successfull?
We need to throw a crazy contract offer to Kovalchuk and trade guys like AK and Gionta (Gomez would be perfect, but it's almost impossible...) and replace their salaries with Kovalchuk's.
A contract along the lines of 115mil over 15 years, heavily front loaded might get him, but I think he'll be a Leaf next year.
Anyway you look at it, Gomez insane trade is really putting us in deep trouble and for a long time. Add to that Gionta's contract and there's a reason why I call for Gainey's firing since july 1st.
