Amid swirling rumors about the next season's salary cap, it was recently revealed that the NHL will only increase the cap by $1 million.

The projected 2023-24 salary cap ceiling is set at $83.5 million, indicating no further negotiations between the NHL and NHLPA. The players are open to a higher cap but won't adjust their escrow payments.

With NHL free agency on the horizon, it's believed the 2023-24 salary cap ceiling will be set at $83.5M -- an indication the NHL and NHLPA won't negotiate a higher increase than the $1M called for in their MOU.

The cap has been frozen due to COVID-19, and players have been repaying over a billion dollars in escrow, expected to be paid back by the end of next season.
