Can anyone comment on this?
Your main problem would be that you won't have the gate revenue of a full season, so if you have salaries set at default, there will be a good chunk less money to cover them. Media and merchandising should be fine, since it just prorates them to 90 games instead of 162, but gate revenue won't be. The simplest solution is to multiply the average ticket price by 1.8 (162/90).
