and Brooks). It's irrelevant when it's the NHL's structure? Gotcha. The PA has to keep Fehr? Gotcha. Have to run, but I'll be back... I've taken no license with that statement. They said they were misinformed when they said they were rallying around issues that are not actual issues . Crosby said -yesterday- he was fighting because it was ridiculous that young guys were being asked to have their entry level deals extended. Entry level deals are being reduced. When he's fighting to stop the opposite of what's been proposed, he's misinformed. Ovechkin has been going on about a 13% rollback long past the time that was off the table. He's tilting at a windmill. He's misinformed. I see it as hypocritical through wanting the best for the players, when history seems to suggest the a unified PA tends to produce what's best for the players. Disrespectful, certainly. Anyway, you could both be right, but I think history tends to be on the side of the union. No doubt it is very important for the execution of Fehr's strategy that the players are unified. No one would question that. That doesn't mean Fehr's strategy is what will benefit the players the most, especially at this stage where holding out further costs money each day and there is very little to suggest what the players will get improves over time. Last time they did the offer only got worse. This is Recchis (and outside observers) point. They said they were misinformed
