Brendan Shanahan just clearly laid out the #leafs plan to ask players to make personal financial sacrifices in the name of the greater good. He says his old Detroit teams benefitted from doing just that.
If I were an NHL GM, the last thing I would do is comment in the media about an ongoing negotiation like that:

a. NHLPA just highlighted every Leafs player for frequent check-ins.
b. You've publicly admitted that the player is worth more than you're offering.
