What If The Cap Went Up

Team: 2021-22 Toronto Maple Leafs

Initial Creation Date: Oct. 22, 2021

Published: Oct. 22, 2021

Salary Cap Mode: Basic

I'm sure you can make this type of post for every team but I feel no team was impacted more by the flat cap than Toronto. They paid all these big name forwards big money and now have little money to improve the rest of the team. Of course, the front office deserves credit for bringing in solid players at low cost, but most of these guys don't have pedigree. They are ideally fourth line/third pair players who are given a role that's over their head. It's just not stable.
