The only problem with that is if a player or multiple players get seriously injured just right before the playoffs and put into the LTIR but becomes ready to play as the team makes it deeper in to the playoffs. I guess you'd put those players as day-to-day and if they're still counted as part of the team cap, the team won't be able to call anyone up if the team is up against the cap. This one probably needs a bit more logistics to make it bomb-proof against loopholes. It'll be great if they make a similar rule like that of trading deadlines. If a player is not taken off LTIR by a certain date before the playoffs, they're basically in-eligible and cannot be played in the playoffs. And thus, their names shouldn't even be on the Cup if the team wins it in the end.
I think the cap count remaining into the end of the team's journey into the playoff would be the most sound since there's no way around that.
