The buyout window opens in less than three weeks. Which players might be sent packing?
The clock is ticking. The calculator buttons are being smashed in front offices. With the Stanley Cup Final set to begin on Saturday, the NHL’s first buyout window of the offseason will begin the latter of June 15 or 48 hours after Lord Stanley is hoisted.

Teams likely won’t know next season’s salary cap figures until the week of the Draft in Nashville, adding a wrinkle of chaos to the calculus. Will it go up by the prescribed $1 million?
