Great point by Andrew on Suter. With Suter and Bonus carryover, the Stars have 1.8 million in dead cap this season. It adds up.

@gjspittle Exactly, we have to weigh the pros and cons of buying the players out. I dont like the idea of having buyout figures on the books as they will add up and hurt us in future years. We do have 1.4 million on the books for Ryan Suter in 25-26.

Many of you have been asking about buying out both Matt Dumba and Ilya Lyubushkin. Here's the math. 4.72M is freed up this season, however added to the books in 26-27 is 3.11M, 958k in 27-28 and 958k and 28-29. You are also without two D-men for depth. #texashockey
