 Not sure massive spikes in 1 season are worth it, because you get stuck with some bad deals and the cap won't always rise like that.

Based on what Bean had to say in the off-season, that's the NHL limiting the spike, and it might jump as high as $100M over a 4-5 year period.

I don't think that would water down the talent as much as give more opportunity to players. Personally, I think it would result in more stars than less.
