Goodenow will have a conference call at 745 and PC at 830

 

[creative giant*]

Hopefully Goodenow will say this again about the PA's Dec 9 Proposal..

“The players have dramatically lowered the overall marketplace and adjusted all of the main system elements with changes that will help well-managed clubs maintain their roster at a significantly reduced cost,†said NHLPA Executive Director Bob Goodenow. “Once a rollback of this magnitude is recognized in the system, the owners’ cost-savings will be realized for years to come.â€

And then explain why it even matters that their are triggers in the new proposal. Because he himself said that the cost-savings will be realized for years to come. According to them the PA proposal will fix everything.

Prove it.

I love PA types asking to define revenues (which is a good point). Let's see Bob define cost savings.

First question that needs to be question, "Bob, why can't you guarantee your own proposal?" Isn't it fair for the league to have triggers to protect them for the offer not being what you say it will do.

next question should be, "Bob, are you prepared to withold from any cap agreement forcing players to have a smaller piece in a smaller pie in the future?"

Next question - "Bob is there any chance you could resign - now?"

[Riddarn]

Dueling press conferences...

Shave Bettmans head, give him a banjo, then give Goodenow a guitar and a cowboy hat and.. voilla!

 

[penopekoo]

this doesn't sound good so far...

Only if they agree to beat each other over the head.

 

[old kummelweck]

I'm calling in.

 

[i am dave]

How convenient, the first question goes to Tim Pinnocchio... I mean Panaccio.

 

[neelynugs]

this doesn't sound good so far...

recap anyone? i can't hear it

 

[old kummelweck]

no wiggle room in the proposal.

 

[TruGr1t]

Doesn't sound particularly good.

 

[Anthony*]

goodenow says that he cant see any wiggle room with the 4 trigger points

 

[think-blue-]

-The 4 trigger points a reflection of their "triple cap" proposal, already twice rejected. Doesn't feel they can negotiate off of them.

-They will be discussing and looking for new concepts in their meetings tonight/tomorrow.

 

[old kummelweck]

still taking questions.
