This is my boomstick
Its funny to me when people say that revenue sharing is the only thing holding this deal back.
Maybe its that the high end of what the PA wants is 71% of all revenues, and the low end is 43% of all revenues. And they want Revenue Sharing. And they want Arbitration. And they want.....etc., etc., etc.
The owners want player costs to be fixed at 54-55%. The players want 43-71 gauranteed.......These two aren't even close, yet somehow the only thing holding them back is...revenue sharing?!?!
We still have a long way to go people. Its replacement players or nothing next season, and either option is going to drag hockey into a further sinkhole.
Get ready for a long, and frustrating summer. This new "aggressive" meeting plan likely means a meeting every 2 - 3 weeks (yeah I know, aggressive ), which means updates telling us "No new progress" and "Owners are the root of evil" or "The players are stalling" for the next 6 months.
