Right now, it looks like it's something (specifically, a combination of the contract levels being too high and an excess of high-end potential in the 16-21ish age group) that can be handled via data changes, so it'll require a new start to get those. But editing the NHL cap in commissioner mode should be effective in dealing with the higher payrolls in later seasons; I'd try about $4-5 million higher to start with. That should give the teams more flexibility to deal with bigger contracts, and the budgets appear to be high enough in later years that they won't be a limiting factor.
