That being said you can't always look to the players to give more. Make it 50/50 with some significant rev sharing and if this one fails they'll have to go somewhere else besides the NHLPA to figure it out.
And until the next CBA, if im a player, thats when I take what I have and walk.

Sure, thats silly considering how much they will have already made, but its about setting a precedent for future CBAs.

The current precedent that seems acceptable is "well, we're losing money, so lets cut the players out."

This cant be a recurring theme here because the owners dont know how to turn a profit amongst themselves.

Just move the ****ing Coyotes already.
