I don't think the league will force CBJ to sign/trade for players to make up Johnny's cap hit to reach the floor...
I think the league will not make an exception - they don't have discretion on whether a breach exists or not. The most they can do is choose the penalty. The thing is, this is an extreme example but once you make one exception, teams will start to ask for exceptions on this and other rules. And there is likley not discretion anyway.
