You could say we see as eye-to-eye as the league and PAMarns, not to sound like I'm backing out of any discussion here, more that it seems we're both so set on our sides.
I understand the politics behind what both sides are doing, and I understand why both are standing their ground. However, I don't care for any of it. It is just so out of touch for me, that the finer details don't matter. Percentages or not, they're still millionaires and billionaires fighting over dollars, while the only people suffering are the ones that put money into the game. Us!I get your points, and you have some fair arguments, but the thing is - if the NHLPA gave in on this offer, which is the first reasonable offer that has been on the table, they're basically lying down and allowing the NHL Owners to walk over them - then when future CBAs come up for discussion, the owners will take more and more because "Eh, it worked last time?". It shouldn't be about the figures of money, it should be looked at as the percentages.
Maybe there is a whole load of Bettman hate influencing what I'm saying, but the argument that "the players can't deal with having less money", can be turned on the NHL and owners
bring on replacement players I say.
scab the league up
Where do you stand on it, PG?
Would be an interesting experiment.
I guess then we would see if its the game and the clubs that the people love, or its the players.
I would lean towards the fact that people would go and watch their teams, regardless of who is playing
60 game season i reckon will happen. they don't want to loos the winter classic and this year it will be at the big house
The Islanders are moving next door to theirbigestranged brother Rangers.
Heading to Brooklyn.
Interesting to see how pathetic it would be and how many empty rinks there would be littered around the league
C'mon now...
McDavid is a freak in my NHL 13 Be A GM. Unfortunately he's playing for Winnepeg
Good mantra Derek, always follow your dreams - of more money.
