Sujet: Cap Solution- reward good drafting
Toronto isnt getting "penalized" for drafting well. Their cap issues were mainly caused by them signing Tavares and Marleau as UFAs and overpaying Matthews.

Also, if you allow teams to exceed the cap for players which they drafted (or give them "discounts" for players they drafted), it would discourage teams from making trades and signing UFAs which would make the trade deadline, draft lottery, free agency, and the entire offseason much less exciting. Having a firm salary cap makes every team compete on an level playing field without allowing bigger market teams to dominate by overpaying their players. Its a good thing that most cup winning teams cant stay together due to cap restrictions since it discourages dynasties and makes the league more competitive instead of having the same team win every single year

Sujet: Cap Solution- reward good drafting
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>battadan</b></div><div>I've been thinking this for a year or so now. i hate when teams are penalized for drafting well. for example: why is Toronto in the cap hell for drafting great players: Matthew, Marner, Nylander, Kadri. wh ydid Chicago have to dismantle their team every year after winning the cup mainly with players they drafted, and developed.

My solution is give teams a 25% cap discount on their own draft picks. they would reward great drafting teams, and also leave more month for middle to lower tier players to be traded, and signed as UFA's. this is just a general idea. idk if this could apply through their whole career, or just their second contract.

What do you think?</div></div>

They signed tavares, and matthews to crazy money contracts. Both players probably could have been had for less. Solution to not being in cap hell, dont give tavares an 11 million dollar FA contract. Canadian teams also have to pay more due to higher taxes. Chicago overpaid players like bickell, and got caught late with hossa's cap hit. FA is the worst thing for a teams cap hit. Look at bruins with backes, canucks with ericsson, flames/oilers with looch and neal. The problem isnt the players they are drafting, the problem is the big money contracts arent producing like they were before they were signed 9 times out of 10.
