Trading cap space will hurt league parity.

If you read the blog it says ” here’s what COULD be in it for the players ” – In other words the writer has no clue….This is probably everything that the players have talked about since the last CBA….Anyways hopefully a deal gets done!

They want single rooms. Really? I dont think the owners would accept this. This will definitely increase costs. The players have enough money to bring their families and siblings. Owners paying for that is just stupid. Man, players are spoiled!

The players losing that first set of paychecks couldn’t afford to bring mommy and daddy with their nice salaries…

I don’t think this was an issue. I’m pretty sure this falls under the “Perks to sweeten the deal” category.

“7) More player friendly rules for parent-son trips, teams would have to pay for parents travel and lodging to first-ever games, other milestones;”

Really?? REALLY??? THIS is actually an issue? I hate this lockout more than ever after reading that.

Wont matter…Leafs will still be laughably pathetic. Let them take on cap in a trade, Toronto is hot on LOLuongo.

” Introduction of appeal rights to a neutral third-party arbitrator in cases involving on- and- off-ice discipline (player-proposed wish)” Shanaban wouldn’t like that. Every other league has except NHL, go figure.
