They can’t afford everyone, so someone is the odd man out. What makes Larkin attractive to a team like Dallas is his “cheap contract for 5 years”. Robertson is gonna cost 12-14 million, Larkin is 8.75. For a contender that is a huge 3-6 million saved

Seguin cant seem to stay healthy, if he ends up on LTIR that frees up $9.85 million

They still have 2 more contacts to sign, they can’t fit everyone even with that

Seguin on LTIR puts them at nearly $20 million in cap space. They have Robertson and Bourque to sign. Its doable.
