Re: Nhl and player's Get it done
Ive totally given up on NHL. Theyve lost this fan for good. The last lockout really changed my view of hockey. This time really sealed the deal in my eyes. I honestly hope more people feel like i do. Edmonton is always at the bottom of thr league lately, plus they want a $400 million arena, and thr players want to get paid more, theb they dont perform. What happens then is, guys like us cant even afford to go watch a game, while these idiots sit back at their beach houses and laugh.

Re: Nhl and player's Get it done
Hockey has changed so much over the years. I remember when the flames first came to Calgary. We were at center ice about ten seats up and had a blast. The crowd was loud and into it. Now all the good seats are filled with oil execs and stuffed shirts that get pissy when common people sit in their section and get into the game.(cheering and yelling out players names and telling them to move their azz etc)
Prices are out of control and the average family can't afford a NHL game. I hope they all have to get real jobs.
Jmho.

Re: Nhl and player's Get it done
This is how you "fix it".............Fire them all,everyone that is signed now from Crosby to Horcoff !!
OFFER them a job in the NEW NHL. Pay is 1 million a year,if your a foward there is a payscale based off of your production and usefullness and ice time,among other things,you could lead the league and max out at 4 million.
Same for defense and Goalies ,respectively.............
However if you SUCK,and "under perform" or are drunk,fawked up on drugs.........whatever your "contract" reflects that in your pay scale where you might recieve the league minimum of 200000K a year.
All these players want to be "big buisness men" and want to make more than the owners with NO investment of their own ,here is their chance with out the worry of losing millions...........
Lets not forget the owners,as well Ticket prices would legally have to drop in corelation with the salary saved............AS WELL as the performance of your team !!! Your team sucks,dont get to charge as much.......
This will never happen,but it is the way the REAL WORLD works and both parties have lost sight of that a long time ago............To bad.

EXACTLY!!!!!....I've been saying this since the last lockout.... $1 million each and performance based bonuses after that.... then maybe, just maybe, me and my kid can go to a game during the regular season....

I like your thinking but here is the problem. The greed will just then gravitate to the KHL oversea's.

Re: Nhl and player's Get it done
There will always be a new crop of great young players comming up who play for the thrill,the older ones that play for greed need to be made aware of this.............
With the NHL paying FAR LESS the KHL payscale will decline i would think.............If they are that greedy that they want to live in kafawkistan for a few hundy more,line up here for your parachute and fly atter....

Re: Nhl and player's Get it done
They got till the 8th? to resolve this?
One thing, if someone could explain... is what good does dissolving the union do? They want to sue the league? Can someone explain this in layman's terms?

I am not sure of all the legalities behind it as well but my gut tells me this is more of a bluff tactic than anything else.

Re: Nhl and player's Get it done
cancel all contracts. Cap them piglets out at 2 mill a year. After they make 15-20mill they have to either quit or continue playing for the love of the game. IE giving a chance for new blood to move in.
