What are they doing wrong? The salary cap is inapplicable in the playoffs. After years of seeing this, no one else wanted Hertl and Hanifin? Tough luck for them.
A couple teams figured it out and they’re winning, and most teams didn’t and they’re losing. Resourceful thinking wins.

I think it is a means to protect teams from a geographical bias. It is no secret that players would prefer to play in Florida, Texas, Nevada and New York.
It is also no secret that 80% of players are playing through injuries that could technically qualify them for LTIR
It is a damaging loophole that doesn't keep in line with the spirit of the salary cap and league parity.
