Don Fehr is revving up a 2019 labour war as his legacy project. Personally, I think he's going to be promising his membership that he can break the cap and linkage. And given his history, he's not going to relent unless the players either break the way the NHLPA did in 2005 or the players tell him to stop grandstanding and start negotiating the way the MLBPA did in 2002.
You don't think massive disappointment among the NHLPA would illicit ill will when it comes to CBA negotiations?

Alone it won't cancel a season but it's another thing the players will put in their pocket.
