So, if the NHLPA refuses to budge off of a $49M hardcap and the NHL refuses to budge off a $40M hardcap, regardless of how all the other issues are resolved, your saying that the NHL can't say there is an impasse?
I don't think it matters if the impasse is due to $$'s or philosophy. If there the sides refuse to budge after negotiating for a reasonable amount of time, that is an impasse.
