In the first 5 months of an agreement,the players want to change the agreement because they don't to pay into an escrow account
Hockey players are not very bright.An entire season was pissed away because they first wouldn't consider a cap and then wanted a $49 million cap and now want to lower the cap after getting a $16 million gap instead of the NHL's $10 million gap
They drink the kool aid and it ruins their judgement
Apparently terrified by the prospect of significant escrow losses over the life of the CBA, the PA appears poised to accept the NHL's long-preferred payroll band of $10M as opposed to the $16M set forth in the agreement. This would fix the cap at $5M above the calculated midpoint, not $8M, with the floor similarly established

The union should let the cap go as high as it can and deal with the escrow consequences as they come. If players don't understand escrow, the answer is education, not p.r.-inspired cap alteration. As a group, they'll end up with the same money either way
