I think something like that is a definite possibility.
Though I'm not as sanguine as some people about the future of the cap. The broadcasting industry is melting down, hockey fans are an aging demographic, and Covid seems to have put a permanent damper on some people's desire to go out to crowded venues for entertainment. I suspect that professional sports generally are due for an economic correction.
