The Nashville Predators are known for not being a team that spends to the Salary Cap. There are pros and cons to that. One pro is that they don’t have to sell off players to get under the Cap. One Con is that there is a perception that lower spending teams aren’t as successful.
There is a report today that there is a chance that the NHL Salary Cap will not only not go up this coming season but could actually go down.
In this report from NBC Pro Hockey Talk, they are saying that the cap could possibly drop from the current $71.
