Let's put aside for now the issue of the overages and performance bonuses, because I don't understand them (but I think they adversely affect your math). You're going to need $20M to re-sign Matthews (roughly $10M more than his current hit), Marner (roughly $7M) and Kapanen (roughly $3M), at a minimum. Now assuming you let Ferland, Gardiner, Hainsey and Talbot walk, and the cap goes up $3M, plus Nylander's reduction gives you only about $19M to play with, and then you have to sign or promote four more players to fill their spots on the roster. I don't think these moves work for next year.
