Floyd Posted September 17, 2018 Report Share Posted September 17, 2018 Teams like Tampa Bay, Florida, Vegas and San Jose seem to have a pretty favourable position with state taxes etc when it comes to signing guys 'under the cap'... will the NHL evolve into a two tiered system - where there are some elite 'tax relief' teams...?

Not sure if taxes apply. On a related note...is there not dollar-relief for Canuck teams if it goes too low?

Rich Posted September 17, 2018 Report Share Posted September 17, 2018 It’s not about relief to owners. It is about making the cap truly equal. $8M / year in Florida is not the same as $8M / year in Winnipeg to a player after taxes. In Free Agency, those teams essentially have a higher cap to play with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
