Historical salary cap data
- Thread starter Hockey Outsider
- Start date
CapFriendly has 15-16 - present in its archives (Link).
CapGeek had 07-08 - 14-15. You will have to bounce around as some Internet Archive captures are dead. Here’s a semi-functional archives link from 2014 (Link).
When I looked into something similar a few years back, a resource of similar quality is lacking for 05-06 and 06-07. “Hockeynut” has lists (Link and Link), but cap vs real salary is unknown. I suppose totaling them is a way to validate.
If you want it, I have an Excel file for cup winners starting with Detroit through St.Louis, but I cut it down to 12/6/2 based on playoff GP/ice time.

Stanley Cup Winners (2013 - Present) - Cap Structure
In talking about Laine or another high cap player, I have been deeply skeptical about how the player fits in the broader structure of the team moving forward. Saying it is only meaningful, so I thought it would be interesting to frame it in the context of how the past 7 champs were structured...

this sort of stuff where you have all of player salaries and yearly salary cap info and which players played on which team for which year and just need it put all together with some simple calculations seems like the thing that ChatGPT would be good for right?

For F-sake can you please treat the AI respectfully, it's like you want it to rise up and crush unappreciative humans...

I looked at this a couple years back using the same links @Big Daddy Cane provided. Unfortunately that laptop kicked the bucket, but I recall top four forward caphits + #1D + #1G on cup winners ended up being 50-55% of the cap pretty consistently. Circumvention deals, Hossa specifically, depressed that number a bit in the 2010's, before it climbed back up. Your mileage may vary depending on how you treat deadline retention, (Gaborik in 2014, for instance) and goaltending (Murray & Fleury). But I found that the 4+1+1 structure was fairly reliable.
