I'm interested in the NHL's take. On the one hand, they would like to decrease players' power which would include more termination rights. On the other hand, they don't want cap circumvention. If the Kings win, how many more terminations can they expect?

Disagree. There is a A LOT to lose if they do this on a very flimsy basis (legally). I would be shocked if that is the case. The magnitude of this, should they not have a pretty solid case, could be very damaging legally, financially (millions of dollars, that would exceed what they would lose in a buyout case), reputation wise, etc.
