the new CBA needs alot of things but i have never heard of maximizing contract lenghts.
I thought of this because as soon as the hard cap is instituted, agents would want a way around it and 6 7 or 10 year contracts is a way to guarentee the players gets his money but is under a cap.
the other benefit is every one would have to play harder for there next contract, guys like yashin or jagr don't really try much when they have long term deals in their pocket.
i think it would work and it would be something the owners could use as a way to get better performance or walk away without qualifying them when their contract is up.
