micheal stone made 4 million last season , hes really going to take that pay cut and give term. no way . also you have like 9 rfa and ufa to sign at end of the year and not enough money still

Right about the Stone thing... but I wouldn't worry about all the RFA's for the following season. A decent hockey trade mid-season that sends RNH away for a decent centre on an expiring contract, or a trade at the draft would solve the cap problems and allow them to sign McDavid with ease.

My worry is Brossoit enough of backup for Talbot during a long season.

Yes definitely need a capable backup Talbot can't play 70 games every year. I think though by the time you get a backup goalie and raise Micheal Stone's contract those RFA contracts start to become a little worry some. Also, not sure that Cullen plays another season.
