Yeah that's probably why the Rangers, Habs, and Leafs won all of those Cups during the DPE.
Which is funny, but irrelevant.

They still would sign all those big money players (and hopefully lose).

Either way, Tampa would not be able to stack their roster like they have.

Really held us back in 04 with Richard's, Msl, and Vinny.

Why is there no option for them being equally impressive?

It's 62 wins. Regardless of the situation that takes some doing to accomplish.

You mean when they got 46 wins? That was a well-built inexpensive team. Only 34 mil. Leafs had double that. Rangers operated at 76 million that season.

Still not sure why you are bringing team success into the discussion, when it was about stacking rosters with expensive players. Those two do not equate. The Bolts would NOT be a better team now, if there was no salary cap. Period.

if it was so easy how come no other non cap team came even close to 62 wins? why are people saying the Red wings stacked their rosters with expensive UFA's? all of them were drafted players or they legibly traded for them.

With no salary cap, they wouldn't have the players they have now, because they couldn't afford them. Big market teams would have taken Karlsson too, so that's another silly point.

Rangers, Canadiens, Leafs would have no trouble giving Kucherov 20+ million per.

You do realize Kucherov is still an RFA right? He hasnt accused enough time to be a UFA yet.

Getting 62 wins in the cap era is insane. No easy wins in the NHL anymore.

I mean Detroit played Winnipeg 1st round of the playoffs and they made it with 78 points.
