If Clarkson, THT and Gay all opt-in plus a we guarantee KO’s and Dunn’s contracts we would be at 14 total players including our three draft picks for a total of $105,433,822.

That would mean we would have just shy of 31M in cap space and we would be 15M away from the salary cap floor.

I'm guessing teams kinda knew this... but also some tax teams are doing cartwheels.

Let’s say all of the above happens except Clarkson leaves in FA then we would have around 45M in cap space.

If THT leaves in FA along with Clarkson we would have 56M in cap space.

We could bring everyone back and give Clarkson a small increase on an extension while still almost having a max cap space slot.

If Clarkson and THT both leave plus we don’t pick up KO’s guarantee we would have two max cap space slots.

I think a good use of our cap space would definitely be a negotiate and extend with Lauri along with taking bad salary back while moving up in the draft if needed. We could do both and still sign a pretty good free agent.

Too bad this is a weaker than usual free agent group.

I think renegotiate and extend may only be possible next year... I think it has to be after the 3rd anniversary of the contract signing.... but can't completely remember. This is something we should do at some point though... yes. So if we need to give ourselves some wiggle room for next year we should.

I think you’re right, I remember us talking about that before.
