7.1 The regular cap is set at $50 million. The hard cap is $90 million. The champion's cap is $93 million. Simple.
7.2 If a team goes over their respective hard cap at any point in time, they have 24 hours to get back under it. Failure to do so will automatically result in the following punishment:
- Three-year loss of LLE/MLE.
- Three-year inability to use or trade draft picks.
- Three-year inability to add any additional salary until back under the hard cap.
7.3 If the team fails to get back under the hard cap within a further 48 hours, then they will face the above three punishments as well as this extra punishment:
- The player on the team with the largest total contract will have his contract scrapped and he will enter the free agency pool (where he will remain until the free agency period).
This gives some leeway to those teams who accidentally cross over the hard cap.
