Dec 13, 2022 2:47 PM

NHL commissioner Gary Bettman said the league's salary cap could rise by only $1 million next season unless revenue outperforms current projections.

The NHL and NHL Players' Association signed a collective bargaining agreement in 2020. They agreed to keep the salary cap flat at $81.5 million until hockey-related revenue surpassed $3.3 billion for the previous season. The salary cap increased for the first time under that CBA this season, up $1 million to $82.5 million.
