Boulton didn't have to move to Clarence. He could have gotten a nice house for 200k in another suburb.

stating its not funny , and recognizing the situation is hardly feeling pity or feeling sorry for anyone.PecaFan said:No, that was half the posters in this thread.

If a deal was getting close a meeting would be needed to explain the new CBA and then have a players vote .. NO meeting means that the NHL has not changed it position much from the last meeting and when the season was cancelled and it would be a huge waste of time and money to fly players in from all over the world to tell them nothing to report ..
Seems Goodenow is doing a great job of taking away NHL bargaining options ..
I guess you have to do what ever it takes to get a negotiating partner ..

The players were told to prepare for 18-24 months of lockout to ensure that the new CBA would not contain a cap/linkage . . . . that was the bill of goods Goodenow sold his membership. Once the PA accepted the idea that the new CBA will contain cap/linkage . . . . how in the world can Goodenow convince his players to lose another year of paychecks and two years of earning potential?mr gib said:personally i think the bob has the pa totally up to date via the phone and internet and they are very tight and well informed concerning strategy - he originally told them this would take 18 months to two years to solve - their gonna wait it out -
That sounds a lot like Patrick Ewing . . . . we need to earn more because we spend more . . . . that's just crazy talk.SENSfreak_03 said:you become acustomed to the life you live with. if your making 300k a year, they likely have larger mortgage payments, and car payments and so on and so forth. if you made 300k a year for 2 years. you dont save all 600k of it. you lose alot of to taxes off the bat to lets not forget.
