SilvergunSuperman posted:Just to clarify, you do agree they're cheating right, with a big ole mess of whataboutism as a side dish? Tampa created almost three times as much fake cap space as Montreal. This makes Tampa's advantage more pronounced, which is that they put good players on their team and prioritize playing those good players, something Montreal struggles with. If you want to imagine some "what would the teams look like without this manufactured cap space," Tampa's still contending for the Cup. Montreal is, well, they're not exactly contending for the Cup now but they're certainly not doing better.

Using LTIR isn't cheating. It also looks like Montreal was able to toll some cap space early in the season (I'm guessing the spikes are due to creative taxi squad deployments on off-days -- yes a loophole but one that every team in the league was aware of and could use), which allowed them to spend a little bit over the cap later in the season with their banked space. Totally different than literally being 15m over the cap the entire season and also somehow knowing everything would turn out fine.

I would really really enjoy the Habs winning it, but I know truly believing would just set me up for guaranteed disappointment.
