here is my latest solution for the owners-accept the nhlpa deal w/ the rollback and luxury tax and start the season on time-right now there are over 300 free agents and a lot of them were making substantial money--if a guy was making 3 mill before his contract expired offer him 1 mill take it or leave it and i am sure some teams like the rangers leafs avs and wings will continue to pay thru the nose but with roster limits they cannot sign them all to rediculous contracts-if the union will not bargain on a cap then each owner should impose his own cap on his team and if one of his guys don't like his offer kick his arse out the door-i would really like to see some of these prima donnas sit out because no team would offer them what "they think" they are worth. if i owned a team there is no union on earth that could tell me how much or how little i can pay my employees--i would really like to see a team offer bobby holik what he is really worth (500k) and see his reaction
