Dolan sucks!!!
Bob Goodenow is a man in trouble
Apparently, after Goodenow reluctantly agreed to a salary cap, the executive council wanted to negotiate off a $46-million US figure. Goodenow went against their wishes and made the offer at $52 million.
In the end, the players were more akin to making a deal than their union leader was and now they are left asking: What's next?
If you believe that NHL owners easily again will abandon cost certainty after losing a season, think again.
If you believe that they again will offer up a $42.5-million salary cap, you are dreaming.
Not only are players upset with Goodenow, there are rumblings that Goodenow and chief negotiator Ted Saskin aren't on the same page,
