Thanks to all of you that took the time to complete the recent
mini-poll.
We asked you. . .
We want to lobby the NHL Players' Association and the owners to
cooperate by adding a team/players' salary cap to the existing
collective bargaining agreement, as soon as possible, and not wait for
the agreement to expire in 2004. With this salary cap, we want a
corresponding cap on ticket prices.
As a secondary issue, we want the NHL to level the playing field and
deal once and for all with the on-going problem of the difference in
Canadian and US currency for players' salaries.
And you responded. . .
(83%) I agree, this is the approach the NHLFA should take with the NHL
(10%) I do not agree with this approach
(6%) Undecided
The linked news release was sent to the media announcing our upcoming
