And on the note of the CBA, fun fact: the NHLPA used to point to Major League Baseball as an argument on why a salary cap wasn't needed. This year, MLB salaries came in at around 43% of MLB revenues. So it would now, in fact, be the MLBPA that would benefit to the tune of hundreds of millions of dollars if they were to achieve a 50% linked cap like the NHLPA has.
