But according to the NHLPA, more money solves everyones problem. I dont understand their brains. Is 2 or 3 million not a living wage? What kind of food do you have to eat to starve on a 3 million salary?
The NHLPA (Like Bettman said) is calling everything to do with money a "Salary Cap". But thats not what they are doing.
A cap is one set limit for each team.
What Bettman and company are, and have been showing, is a "Salary Range". A range, based on revenue to cost for each team.
But I say, no matter what, 100%, they use replacement players next year. Not one player from the NHLPA can be in the league.
But this will be solved before the Olympics. No NHLPA player can play in the olympics, so I think they will kinda panic about that. Possibly.
On a side note, I respect Paul Kariya. He was making about 6 to 7 million ( i think) in Anaheim, and he took a 6 million paycut (He made 1.3 or something) so he could play in Colorado with Selanne.
More players should be like him...whats that word? Not selfish?
