I don’t love the buyout allowance purely out of spite for the teams that will likely come out more on top than the Oilers if they simply buyout Neal. But you’re right, with the cap likely going down, and probably significantly down, the league will have to do something to keep the players and teams happy. Maybe let teams go over the cap temporarily or something. I dunno I’m not creative enough.

I don't love buy outs either but in my opinion the league will have to do something even to just keep the cap the flat. You can't claw it back it will screw over a lot of teams. Revenue wasn't very good last season and it resulted in the cap barely going up. I can't see how it won't be worse this year when you potentially are losing 10+ games and a very real chance that the playoffs at minimum won't be the same. It would be a complete disaster for the league if they don't have playoffs at all. So I believe they will do everything in their power to have some kind of playoff. If some kind of playoffs do happen, it could also impact next season and the amount of games they can physically play. The players first suggestion of starting the next season in November which doesn't seem that far off as reasonably has to mean they play less games next season. You can't make up an entire month of missed season on top of having a compressed offseason. Something has to give. For one thing, it can't be safe physically on the players to do that much hockey without much of a break to recover if you plan on jamming an 82 game season into 1 less month time frame.
