Hi Guys
I guess I'll have to get used to the fact & that the majority of you guys are right in predicting a lock-out. One of Bettman's ideas is the players should give up a %tg of their salaries (I believe the owners want the players share to go down to 46% of the revenues -- or something like that) to help the league support the financing of the so-called "small market" teams struggling at the gate. His argument doesn't have a whole hell of a lot of credence in light of the big-a$$ed contracts being handed out by some of the teams. Of course as stated by others, all of this 'hard line' approach to the players is meant to cover the backsides of some who have successfully managed to bugger things up in more than a couple of organizations.
Cheers
JB
