As the NHL and NHLPA have agreed upon a deal to extend their current CBA (pending final ratification) the league has announced that it has locked its salary cap in at $81.5 million for the next season (and very likely a few seasons that follow). With just over $47 million dollars in committed contracts next season, the Ottawa Senators could hypothetically be in the most favourable position from a trade perspective to benefit from the impact of the Corona virus.
Exploring trade options now may be somewhat premature as we know the draft could potentially fill a couple of needs as early as next season.
