puckpedia has them at 1.1m and 8m. over when talking their injuries.

Yeah, I’m a little confused on how the playoff stuff works, but I saw their cap hit at over $103m. They do have a bunch of guys on LTIR, but can’t use that to acquire and then unlimited cap at playoffs anymore. Either way, don’t see them looking at Faulk.
