I mean frankly isn't a 3 million dollar increase equivalent to about $500 million in increased revenue?
I'm watching quite a few games and seeing a lot of empty seats in a lot of rinks including Vancouver and Ottawa, so I'm not sure how that makes sense.

Yes, Vegas is unlikely to bump the cap up much. They would have to have revenues $60m higher than average (not happening) in order to bump the cap $1m. $300m to bump it $5m.
