The Habs may wish to maximize their cap utilization before putting Byron on LTIR.
If that is the case, I believe this is the way to do so, also taking into account we cannot waive anyone.
a. Armia and Byron go on IR to allow for more than 23 players to count against the cap.
b. Edmundson is NOT put on IR so his name can count for one of the 6 defenceman we need to have.
c. Mesar is brought back up on paper
d. Barron is kept over Guhle due to his higher cap hit - again this could be just for one day
e. Xhekaj and Leskinen are sent down due to cap hit being less than Mesar's and Barron's.
f. Slaf is kept over RHP and Ylonen due to cap hit higher
This would leave us at just $136,667 under the cap, then we do this:
i. move Byron from IR to LTIR
ii. put Edmundson on IR
iii. bring up Leskinen, Guhle and Xhekaj and demote Barron and Mesar
We still have 23 (14+7+2) on active roster, plus Armia and Edmundson on IR
