So you're a shill for the rich in the sports world too. Not surprising. Without guaranteed contracts your hockey team wouldn't have won any of their recent cups. So you'd trade those to line the pockets of rich owner? Or does this only apply to the NFL because of obvious reasons.
I dont even have to like hockey that much to understand why you cant compare the two. Hockey isnt that popular and outside of a few cup games on NBC most of their playoffs are not on cable or a fined tune oil machine like Turner or ESPN. The league probably struggles to make a profit without such a lucrative TV deal. The salary caps are different because one league is popular and has the resources for that. You also have more players on a roster. Ill go out on a limb and say hockey has no $100 million contracts out there. In the NFL you would be paying a QB, WR and a defensive player or two contracts around there or even above. Teams already invest enough as it is on a QB
