«To do that, you need to free up cap, you have no room. When everyone comes back, you don't have room. You've got guys, you've got Armia, you've got Byron... All those guys who make $2-3 million, it adds up and at some point, you can't keep everyone. You have to clear some guys, maybe even buy out some contracts. You were talking about Drouin, he has one year left after this year, maybe that's the decision, it's to buy out his contract, because if you're not able to complete it by the deadline .... What is most important between now and the end of the year for free agents, you need money, it becomes essential for the club." -Vincent Damphousse
