Who is and who is not part of the NHLPA? Are UFA's part of the NHLPA even though they are technically unemployed? Former players and drafted players? Where do they sit?
I ask because, well, I don't know the answers and I'm wondering if players are not part of the NHLPA once they become UFA and untill they are resigned.. how long before all the players contracts are up? I know Yashin has a crazy long contract still.. anybody else?
What if.. and this is never going to happen but.. what if the owners bought out all the players contracts. All 30 teams, all the players.. then what? Would that be the end of the NHLPA? hehe
