The solution is simple. Have the salary cap applied in the playoffs.

In theory that is 100% great but practically not so much. The NHL want's the best teams available and playing for the playoffs. If you have a young, hot player playing well, you can't bench him for a high priced veteran for cap compliance. Vice versa as well.

The NHL kind has the 2 different seasons from a quality perspective. Regular season and a lot of the gimmicks like losers points go away and the boring games consisting of some passing and a goal go out the window.
