NHLPA Counter Proposal - $49 million cap
The PA also agreed to a % of the playoff revenues.
The hypocrisy is mind-boggling.
The PA is 100% in favour of linkage as long as it ensures they will get an increased share of the pie.
How come they can NOW arrive at a formula of what constitues revenue???
What happened to the issue of TRUST?????
There is no way to determine every last penny of revenue.
Negotiate the artificial formula.
Negotiate the % each side gets.
Monitor the results with independant auditors.
NO TRUST REQUIRED!!!!!
Of course, this is exactly what the NHL and the pro-owners group have been maintaining throughout this debate. Nice of Goodenow to reveal the smokescreen for what it was...a cash grab, nothing more, nothing less.
The "trust" issue has been a smokescreen from Day 1. This has always been about the PA getting a bigger share of the pie and forcing the owners to take all the risk.
Lower risk = lower rewards.
Stick to your guns Gary.
P.S. This development certainly puts the "revenue sharing" smokescreen in a different light for any willing to examine the issue with an open mind.

7. Indexing of Tax Rates and Payroll Minimums & Maximums All dollar amounts would be in place for 2004-05 (pro-rated) and 2005-06. Dollar levels for tax rates, payroll minimums & maximums for subsequent years either constant or increased by % change in greater of either hockey related revenues or only the gate receipts and broadcasting segments of hockey related revenues from the 2005-06 base year.
