Check my math on these, but I think I have it 😆.
These were more to clear roster space than save money.
G Pekka Rinne, $5.0m (2020-2021) 5x.667 = /COST 3.335 (Saving 1.665m)
D Steven Santini, $1.5m (2020-2021) (age 25) 1.5x.333 =/COST 0.5 (Saving 1m)
LW/RWAustin Watson, $1.5m (2022-2023) 3x1.5 = 4.5x.667 =/COST 3.0m
D Jarred Tinordi, $0.7m (2020-2021) 0.7 = free drop (Saving 0.7m)
4 drops/buyouts = a net Cap Savings of 0.365m
