As opposed to hording them on a few select teams?
The owners want a system where all the teams make money, even the ones who can't sell tickets. This can be done as long as you set the cap at a level the bottom feeders can afford. Of course, the teams who can sell tickets and do put a good product on the ice will make a bundle. Peg everyone to the Carolina or Florida or Anaheim revenues and how much money will the Leafs and Rangers and Flyers make?

How does a $31m hard cap guarantee all teams make a profit? You can still lose money with a $31m cap, and if you do perhaps its time to move.
