Let’s hope the cap goes up or bye bye Marner or Nylander I guess?
- Garnie


It's safe to assume it won't go up for the 1st time in it's history.

- RogerRoeper


it's more safe to assume that it will go up 3-4 times more than the previous biggest cap increase

Yeah.

Well he could go all out and get a Jarry or Georgiev.

He is in a tough spot but if they have to give up a prospect to get a goalie I do it.

They might be too expensive.

Maybe a DeSmith or try trading Ceci and Hutchinson for Jimmy Howard? I don't know.. Something, anything is better than what we have now.

Because you can't read. I never said 15 million in 1 year. I never said 15 million due to Seattle.

That creates a hole on the RS and to get what? A struggling goalie in return?

FFS tired of Roger sucking Nylander and Dubas' cocks..



Nylander is overpaid because he is a 'me first' guy that will avoid any physical contact and that will never help any team to actually win a Stanley Cup.

Keller >> Nylander.
Hayes >> Nylander.
100s of players are better than Nylander.
Nylander friggin sucks.

Marner and MAtthews are slightly overpaid.
Nylander is hugely overpaid, since he is a net negative for the Leafs.

you said the cap would be 100 million when Laine gets his new deal after next year.

it's 81.5 right now.......it's only projected to go up 2-3 million for next year.......so yeah, that's 15+ mil in one year to get to 100

but you're speculating that I'm speculating......when in reality I'm speaking fact.


how many different ways can I say speculating? speculate, speculation, speculating, assuming, there's gotta be more.....I'm sure you'll find them and change things up a bit

Again, the Vegas cap bump occurs the season AFTER and that's mentioned in your article:

The incredible success of the Vegas Golden Knights culminating in a Stanley Cup Finals berth helped grow the revenue of the league and thus had a tremendous impact on the salary cap. The current salary cap is $79.5 million, an 8.9 percent increase from the 2016-17 season.

The cap will never go up a dime due to expansion until a year after they have completed a season and all revenues are tabulated.

- RogerRoeper

This is a bit of a common misconception. Allow me to explain:

Yes, the NHL does use the last year's revenues to calculate the next year's salary cap (they look at revenues and then add a little bit due to inflation).

But...

The salary cap that is announced for the upcoming year is not the actual salary cap - it's merely a projection. At the end of that year, they do the actual calculation. That's why they have escrow.

I realize that this is a bit of a technicality that doesn't affect the argument to much, but I thought I would point it out because it's pissing rain so I've skipped my trip to the gym.
