The NHLPA isn't about the middle and lower paid players in the league, its never promoted itself as that.
Its about getting a more then 50% share of the revenue pool, and then basically they don't care about things like pay equity or sharing amongst brothers and all that union label stuff.
The NHLPA has really been about the top paid players and getting them more and more. the NHLPA has been all about maximum rights of movement to the teams that they want to play for.
But the NHLPA doesn't give a crap about Joe 1.25 million, or Bob 2 million, or Jyrki minimumwageo.
