It's been four weeks, and I can't even get a single response? Wow. The problem is now even worse; I'm now in the 2019-2020 season, and although it says my 'projected spent' for 2020-2021 is $68M, my 'extension dollars remaining' is only $2.4M. That's literally $9M in cap space that's just vanished into thin air.
It's not that. For one thing, I picked the Leafs; there's no bigger market in the NHL. And secondly, both the owner's cap allotment and the regular cap is specifically displayed under Player Salaries Budget.
I don't think I'm ever going to get an answer to this, and it's absolutely ridiculous that I can't even get a single person from EA to reply to this topic after two months.
Is Nathan Horton still on your roster?
Edit: Went on a rant there, hopefully nobody saw.
Problem lies with how future years salaries are reported. They're misreported during the season, then is corrected during the re-signing phase. You'll see you can spend to the cap during the re-signing phase but you'll have a hard time accounting for it during your contract negotiations during the year, so just wait until the re-signing phase for the next season.
