I find that the salary cap has made the NHL really interesting, its more nuanced, its harder, the richest team doesnt always win just because they're the richest team.

But at the same time as much as I loathe his existence McDavid is a human being who has to live after hockey, he has to leverage his best years as best he can. Stanley Cup rings arent going to keep him warm at night after his wife leaves him for the local weather girl and his dog runs away and he blows his cash getting stoned on moon rocks while Oiler fans burn his baby's crib.

Just ask Darren McCarty.

Ironically, you know who leaves cash on the table? Support players. The major players tend not to.
