I don't know if you could replace them but you're taking a big chunk of the cap for those 2 players. The Avs have Forsberg and Foote as the prominent UFAs and Hejduk, Tanguay, and Aebischer are RFAs. Forsberg is gone. I believe Foote is also gone. I also think it will be hard to keep both Hejduk and Tanguay.
Saw this on Eklund's message board, Red Wings buy out Derian Hatcher, Ray Whitney, and Darren McCarty.
