NHLPA steps up negotiations!

Friday, December 10th, 2004

The NHLPA really stepped up with a great offer! A 24% pay cut is a great way to restart the negotiations. What is the NHL going to do?  We can all agree the NHL needs some controls on the GMs but the players aren’t going to take a 24% pay cut AND a salary cap.

So Mr. Suck what is your response going to be? It better be good!

Can’t wait to watch the London Knights play tonight… the power of Major Junior hockey is starting to sweep me off my feet.

NLHPA presenting labour proposal today!

Well the NHLPA is presenting a proposal today. Hopefully it will be something that Mr. Suck will like…or at least talk about. I don’t know about everyone else but I really hope the two sides can at least start talking.

MLS (Major League Soccer) is going after the title of #4 pro sport in the US while the NHLPA is locked out. Long term that might be good for our game but I still love it and wished more Americans got it…but oh well.

Mr. Suck…if you don’t like the offer you better counter-offer. Remember you don’t just represent the owners you represent the fans as well!

NHLPA reaches out to NHL

Finally someone wants to talk. I still think the NHLPA should have done this a while back but at least they did something! For all you people that side with Bettman…what are you going to say when he rejects and doesn’t have a counter offer.

What then? I will tell you what…join in the “Gary Bettman Sucks” rant!

Mr. Suck…please do what is good for the game and not your ego!

I really want to see NHL hockey this year…Mr. Suck don’t screw it up!

Please!
