NHL players are divided on both sides of the Atlantic right now. Players are split between doing housework or playing hockey abroad. Even NHL player execs are on the wrong side of the ocean at this time in need. Players must know the damage that is being done to the game and that teams folding, playing with smaller rosters and possibly contraction are more and more likely with each passing day. Players rhetoric and even a owners rhetoric are alos hurting the game and themselves with useless rhetoric being one of the causes of this prolonged struggle.
To split the players even more you have the haves and the have nots with the haves making up most if not all of the players execs for the PA. The haves can afford to retire and even though they are losing playing time and income it won't affect their lifestyles. The have nots may not have a job when the NHL II resumes play next year.
It seems to me that job security or the pursuit of protecting NHL roster spots for the NHL brotherhood seems to be and afterthought in this war? I would think it would be the number one priority and all the more reason that the voices of all players should be considered.
