I think the league will need to address it again once everything calms down because they need to clarify the CBA to prevent issues in the future.
NHLPA should be asking for clarification as well as someone previously pointed out, if ROR in fact HAD to go through waivers, it would deter a team from giving him an offer sheet thereby decreasing his salary (which the NHLPA does NOT want)
So to make sure their salaries don't decrease because of ambiguity, if the NHLPA feels like ROR shoudl have been waiver exempt, they need to clarify this or they would be shooting themselves in the foot for future cases
