All I'm saying is having cap space at the deadline is a good thing.
The more space, the higher salaried player that you can add.
The Habs are in the midst of a youth movement where you have a bunch of players at or under the $1million/ yr mark. hence the space.

Spending to the cap just for the sake of spending is pointless, If you can fill out your roster and still have massive wiggle room; you're all the better for it
