As things currently stand we can't take a player via S&T. Using the TP MLE costs over $20 million in tax (on top of the $6mm in salary). The other thing to keep in mind is we don't have $5mm trade spreads over the apron. Just 125% plus $100k.
Mvossman is right. The path to any kind of upgrade is trading salary for salary. It could be THJ (Sacramento has to add a body and we then send out a minor salary into their TPE if we are talking about Holmes). We can also match with Reggie or Maxi (as was suggested by IGT).
Unless we are dumping Frank or stashing our pick in Europe, we have to do a two-for-one deal at some point as we have 15 guaranteed salaries if we retain the pick plus Frank's NG contract.
