Or so I hope that will prevent it, since I have never been very clear on just how the NBA cap system works.

yeah, I don't care much about the NBA, but I would really hate to see where a team acquires a player JUST because he is overpaid and in his last contract year, meaning he'll be freeing up cap space. I don't want to see that in the NHL at all.
