We are not really "crippled" (also what a poor choice of words given AS' injury) with our salary cap seeing as we now have the 2nd highest amount available. And if the salary cap allowed exceptions for injured players than you would basically create a huge loophole for teams to exploit. We suffered a bigger, and more unfair, salary cap penalty at the start of the last CBA and ultimately it had little bearing on the success or failure of the Skins.
