THEIR TEAMS WOULD MATCH!!!!
The only time they are going to let a player of that caliber just leave is if another team is offering such a ridiculous amount more than market value that it would make no financial sense to do it.
And if they are having financial difficulties and knew they wouldn't be able to sign these players, they would have been exploring trading them a long time ago.
Do you think that if Karlsson had made it to July 1st and a team had convinced him to sign an offer sheet that the Sens would even blink before matching?
I have no idea why you think that just because these players are RFA's that an offer sheet is the way to acquire them.
