What could you do, though? Increase the compensation? That would make teams more likely to match but it would also make teams less likely to offer one.
Decreasing the compensation might work in terms of getting teams to offer them out but then again matching would be almost a certainty in those cases.
I guess the other thing you could do is make it player roster compensation like it used to be (such as when Brendan Shanahan was signed by St. Louis and the Devils were awarded Scott Stevens). This would decrease the likelihood of teams offering as well, I think.
