Fuhr86 said:Small market teams will be making money off this deal, Especally with a dollar for dollar luxery tax at 40 million.
Take for example the Avalanche who have a payroll of 60 million, that would be 20 million over the 40 million limit. So the Avs would have to pay 20 million dollars in luxery tax on top of there 60 million dollar payroll.
So thats 20 million in the Pot, Now add the leafs, rangers, detroit, philly,dallas,and Stlouis. so thats another 120 million in luxary tax to add to the 20 million.
So with those 7 teams you have 140 million dollars and then take into account all the teams like the devils,habs and sens who have a payroll in the 45-50 million dollar range and the luxury tax pot will be around the 200 million mark.
Now if 10 teams are under the 40 million dollar luxuary tax that would be 20 million dollars going to each team. That seems like a pretty sweet deal to me.
and one franchise player
lets not forget that draft picks could come into play also
lets say at 43 million teams start to lose picks for every 1 million they go over the cap plus the luxery tax
thats a steep penalty
