Take it for what it's worth.
This is the most optimistic I have been since the NHLs first offer back in July.

NHL brass may want substantial revenue sharing as much as NHLPA, but it's in an awkward spot here. The most profitable franchise are ...

... also the most powerful, the ones who hold considerable sway w Gary Bettman. They don't want to share their $$$ w the poor stepchildren.
You would be glad to shell out $13,000 for a pair of season tickets to watch players at an ECHL level, Really ????

Should i take your word for it or can you find actual numbers?

umm, no it's actually incredibly simple. Your analogy is terrible.
Player's share decreases, so costs for ALL teams decrease. Why is that fair when the rich teams that make tons of money every year will make even more?
Player's will decrease cost to help struggling teams, and the owner's will increase revenue sharing to help said struggling teams. Together, we hope all teams are viable (although Phoenix should probably still move).
To come to 50/50 in Year 3 is great. The first couple years is probably something to do with the "make-whole" concept.
i mean in a 5k seat arena you can tell when it is half full and when it is full. but if you need documentation here you go

This is complete ********...the most profitable franchises are teams like the Rangers and Leafs and Habs. The teams running the show with Bettman are teams like the Bruins, Wild, Caps, etc.
They're not exactly the poor teams but they are definitely not the big money makers of the league.

Just how expensive do you think tickets are for ECHL games?
Thanks for the info. Knowledge is power!! Now time to end this lockout get tarasenko over here and win the cup.
Not exactly - that's prognosticating. I think the information that was being asked for is what has the attendance actually been in the AHL since the 2012 lockout began for those teams with NHL players. What it was in 2005 or what it was estimated it could be before the season started isn't really the answer.
But they are controlled by incredibly greedy owners. They aren't interested in making other struggling teams viable, merely interested in making more money.
If this is supposed to be at some secret location, how are all these clowns posting twitter updates during the meeting? Seems like everything we're getting is pure assumption.
'Eh? The NHLPA is going higher in their demands instead of negotiating closer to a mid-point? That's... different.
