And I don't think they're done. But to update us on the entire Oilers body of work today, here's the young gun, Aiden Ganim.
Well, it started off with the Oilers getting Devin Levi from the Buffalo Sabres along with a seventh-round pick. In exchange for the goaltender, they sent a 20-28 third-round selection the other way. The Oilers then moved away from Darnell Nurse. He's been traded to the San Jose Sharks for Shakir Mukhamadoulin and prospect Zach Sharp. Then the Oilers signed Ryan Shea to a five-year contract that'll pay $4 million to the defenseman a season. Then they signed Kasperi Kapanen. One-year deal that will pay him $2.6 million. And the most recent, they've signed forward Matthew Joseph to a one-year, $1 million contract.
Now, for the record, the team has not officially put out Joseph. Is that correct?
No, it's not officially yet. And I forgot one more. They also signed farmhand Edwards Tralmax to a one-year, two-way contract worth $850,000.
Guy that had a real good year. So here's the deal. So since we've gone on air, Kapanen, Stan Bowman alluded to this close to around 357. They were closing in. He was bullish on the possibility that they'd get something done with Kapanen. Elliott Friedman has reported they've done Matthew Joseph. I do not believe they're done. I believe they're still going to sign a goaltender as well. Okay? And it's not going to be a guy at a million bucks. I might be spending a little bit more money. The end result, because I'm looking at the D here, Eklund and Bouchard, let's say Wallman and Murphy, Shea and Emerson, that means there's only room for really one of Stachny or Maka Madulan. I'm setting aside about $2.5 million for the goalie that they're going to sign.
And then the forwards, right now with Joseph in the mix and Kapanen back, I got the team at about $100 million in the cap, leaving about $4 million in cap space. So we shall see in that regard. I want to know what you think of the owner's body of work. You can text us on the Ashley Fine Floors text line, 780-451-8800. By the way, remember we talked about that deal for Matt Zuccarello? Have you seen how that breaks down yet? You got to just type up Matt Zuccarello. And remember I said it has to be heavily bonus-based. You're going to be stunned to see what the 10 games played bonus is. Go to Puckpedia and take a look at Matt Zuccarella. It is something, the way Ken Holland has worked out this deal. Oh, boy, oh, boy, oh, boy, oh, boy, oh, boy.
And now I'm wondering whether or not, because people are sort of making some tweets and some suggestions and some texts. We will tell you Ryan Shea. is going to join us live at 5.15. So we're going to get to that. Zuccarello's contract, $1 million salary, a $5.5 million performance bonus, $5 million for 10 games played.
