Nothing is happening right now because teams aren't sure they are in the playoffs yet and there's still too much salary and cap hit to be paid out.

So maybe you don't save that much this season, but you can probably save a lot next season and the season thereafter, all of which could see revenues down from before covid. It could take a few years for ticket revenue to come back to the way it was before, which is why I'm saying it's not a bad time to go through a rebuild.
Yes, lots of team would be interested in those players.

I don't see any teams that will take those players without sending cap back in the deal, that's my point.
