Below shows the new playoff accounting rules applied to last playoff game in 2025, Game 6 of the 2025 Stanley Cup Final. The Salary Cap in 2024-25 was $88M, meaning that the Edmonton Oilers would have been $7,353,277 below the Playoff Cap in Game 6 had it been in effect, while the Florida Panthers would have been $5,038,282 above the Playoff Cap

Barf. Shoulda used it even harder.

Pretty telling that the only team "investigated" by the NHL for cap circumvention last year was Edmonton with Kane.. courtesy of C. Campbell and Bettman.. while Florida was the one icing a team a mile over the cap.
|
Just glad they dropped it. I think we did create an opening because the messaging from the Oilers camp and Kane's seemed totally out of sync for some time. The messaging was out of sync so badly that we actually paid extra to a team to retain cap space at the deadline. Cap space retention we did not end up needing.
I'm not sure I've ever seen a team trying the LTIR scam that had the team and player out of sync with the media on when the player was expected to come back into the lineup. Classic clumsy stuff you expect from our org.

It was a clumsy handling by Kane/Oilers.. but the whole LTIR thing was a long running scam since Kucherov.. which the NHL happily ignored.. with a big wink-wink.. until the Oilers finally utilize it.. legitimately (Kane had two surgeries to recover from).. and then NHL decides to do their first investigation.. which was meaningless anyway.. the NHL couldn't ever force a player back on the ice before the player thinks he's sufficiently healed.. and the NHL could never medically prove he was healed.. it was NHL Corp. pageantry
