I'd be surprised if they managed to get rid of escrow all together in one round of bargaining, I'm sure that would be the PA's first choice obviously, but realistically I think they will fight for a reduction. I don't think the owners are giving up % or the cap, and removing the escrow doesn't affect the link to HRR, the cap would still be set based on the previous season's revenues, so long as the escalator is removed as well.
