NHLPA met this week, and it sounds like the players, after crunching the numbers, will consider using their full 5% growth factor.

That's not a guarantee, but it is a positive shift from what they were thinking. If that happens, cap probably comes in a little over $71M

Thats a bit more wiggle room if they go the full cap growth for a few cap jail eams, they'll still need to move some money but not fire sale get ripped off kind of trades.

Offer sheets will probably b a poor choice now too.
The players have used their inflator every chance they have gotten haven't they?

It seems like I hear it every season.
