The NHL expected salary caps to be much higher by this point, but due to COVID and loss of revenues, the salary cap has had to remain pretty stagnant.
Although with the amount of revenue they seem to be bringing in with the new helmet ads and digital ads, hopefully we do not see this flap cap for much longer. Back in Dec 2021, it was announced that the NHL was tracking to make over $5 billion, which is ahead of where they were pre-pandemic.
NHL Commissioner Gary Bettman says through their new sponsorships (helmet decals, digital ads, etc.) they've recovered upwards of $100M in revenue.� David Pagnotta (@TheFourthPeriod) March 11, 2021
