Lightning Round: Contenders with cap space burning through their pockets

A wise woman once said, unused cap space is leaving wins on the table.

If the Islanders really want to, they can give Noah Dobson, Alexander Romanov, and Kieffer Bellows a lot more money than they need to. Once those players are signed, there’s going to be a lot more money left to spend. I hear Lou Lamoriello has a Nazem Kadri contract in his desk.

Targets: Nazem Kadri, PK Subban, Evan Rodrigues

Boston Bruins: $4.7 million

If Patrice Bergeron wants to comes back, it’ll be for cheap. He’s 37 and has already made almost $100 million in his career, according to CapFriendly.
