Not to mention that patricks contract is oddly frontloaded so that the money can move around. He is due 60+ million each of the next three years against the cap, but that falls to 32m in 2028, 34m in 2029 then its in the 40m range after that. They have alot of stuff they could do to be rich in cap space this year if clark wants to write big old checks.

Patrick's contract is oddly frontloaded because when they restructured it they just pulled money from the later years and moved it forward and called it a 5 year deal. When it falls down to the 30s is when it will get redone once again.
