Thread: Most likely
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Silverbug</b></div><div>Cap theory... NHL and NHLPA agree to raise cap by set amount over next 4 years (2.5m year 1 and 1.5m years 2-4). This is done to keep player salaries increasing and enable longer term deals to be signed with more certainty. Escrow will then claw back player salaries based on hockey related revenues. The actual cap is mostly irrelevant at this point so may as well provide certainty. A cap freeze actually solves nothing and I believe NHLPA should insist on scheduled cap increases. Players hate escrow under normal times but right now I think everyone understands in order to keep the league running its a requirement. Let me know what you think.</div></div>

i was going to post that theory dammit u beat me to it. I have a feeling the NHL will keep the cap same for 1 year then when seattle comes in they increase it as this will spark growth within the league.

Thread: Tavares, keeping a solid core
It works,,,,but you did the math incorrectly. There is no carryover from 2018/19 on this format as it already has been calculate into the roster. 2550000. Add the expected bonus for 2018/19 ....4550000 is done by creating a player. (which you did). To be able to use the PB in 2018/19, Horton and his 5.25m salary has to be include included on the opening day roster, and the Leafs still have to be cap compliant.
After the first game, Horton can be placed on IR so the Leafs have additional cap space for the season....such as trades.
If Horton is on the opening day roster. I think I have the following correct It would be possible for the Leafs to have waiver eligible players such Borgman and Grundstrom in the AHL for the first game and once Horton is on the IR these players are recalled for game two.

Thread: Could happen and numbers are realistic
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>ConnorMcSchulenberg</b></div><div>How much carryover is expected? I heard they’d be looking at 5.4 million which would work in this situation.</div></div>

I've repeat this endlessly about the rules of performance bonuses. Look at the Leafs roster next season on cap friendly folks just might understand.
OK here is goes again. So you make a 2018/19 Leaf roster. You have to include the performance bonus carryover form 2017/18 which is going to be a 4m, You have to create "another player:. Now what I say next is tricky but factual. IF, IF the Leafs want to no PB carryover from 2018/19 into 2019/20, which is probably wise for the Leafs because for the high RFA signings the Leafs the Leafs would have to do the following:
1. As shown earlier they have to have 2017/18 PB into the cap space 2018/19 (create a player for 4m)
2, Pay PB of 2018/2019 in the 2018/19 of about 4m in 2019/20. (create another 4m player)
3. In order of to pay 2018/19 PF in 2018/19,Horton' 5.25m salary has to shown on the opening day roster. And this roster has to cap compliant to the 80m So that's 4m and 4m and 5,25m that if often ignored when creating teams. Horton then can be placed on LTIR after game one and the Leafs have 5.2 in cap flexibility for the season.

So assuming the Leaf don't want any PB carryover into 2019/20, the Leafs sign their UFAs, the Leafs have about 11m for UFA signing for 2018/19.
