3m Cap Increase Next Year
Bettman hinting the increase for next year. Our league will match. There are quite a few studs that will walk into this new money (Stamkos for one). In this year of underperformers, seeing a bunch of $3-4 m on FA list. Kind of like the possibility of thinning out FA ranks making the dynasty format more relevant. It would also place more value at catching up on the Panarins of the future. Had the benefit of rostering both Panarin and Larkin week 1. Not so sure if that luck will hold going ahead as aggressive GMs play harder.
Will increase the Farm by 4 more to follow up with young blood needs. But thinking the extra Cap will make it harder for midrange players to keep up with the balancing act of Cap leagues.
Am I reading this right? Will Cap leagues become more dominant in fantasy with GMs digging deeper to make things fit? And if so, worth cranking up the buy in?

Re: 3m Cap Increase Next Year
I think a lot depends on the USD vs. CAD.
Last year on Dec.1, it was like $1.14 CAN for a $1 US.
Then by June.1, it was like $1.25 CAN for a $1 US.

[Btw, currently about $1.35 CAN for a $1 US.]
The $3m hike estimation is based on revenue (a lit more dependable) and some assumption on the relevance in the currency (not as dependable).
The dollar is still moving... so who knows... but I wouldn't be surprised if the cap does go up by at least $2.5m this year.
