Can you please explain why, from a league's respective, it is impossible to graduate into a 50/50? Why is it impossible to honor the contracts that were signed, at times, a day or so before the lockout?
Where is it written that ALL business MUST be cash flow positive? Why is it that the owners of NHL franchises feel that they need to be indemnified from loosing money? Because here's the thing. If you are in a Bettman expansion southern market, you will continue to loose money, over and over again. I am not sure why the owners of this league feel like they are all ENTITLED to be in the green. It certainly does not happen in any other sport.
