    yeah of course, collapse - resolution - recollapse - final resolution - hockey by Christmas


    owners want a 10 year CBA and max 5 year contracts
    players want a 5 year CBA and no max contract length


    expecting 8 year CBA and 6 year max contracts, $300M make whole fund and 50/50 HRR split starting next year

    Yeah, it's best to keep your expectations tapered. We've already seen them lose an entire season.

    All I know is when about 18 of 30 teams in the league are losing money every year, something's gotta change. I don't blame owners for not wanting to lose money yearly anymore, what's the point of that?
