Not only is this hoping that Sergachev, Cernak and Cirelli take at least a 1 million dollar paycut, it also has Bogosian taking a paycut of around 1-1.5 million which I cannot see happening. I just cannot see a way that the Lightning are able to bring back all 3 of their RFAs and they might not even be able to bring back two of them if players like Johnson refuse to waive their NMCs. Johnson also might not even bring back positive value and you might have to give up picks to offload him as he is a 3rd liner making a lot of money in a time where almost every team does not have enough cap space.
There are plenty of teams that will be willing to pay Sergachev, Cernak, Cirelli and Bogosian a lot more than that and it doesn't really make sense for any of them to take those deals when they can join another team that is contending while getting paid a lot more. And that isn't even touching Maroon and Ryan making less than 900,000 per year.
