I certainly don’t think people so selfish that they’re complaining about a wage reduction in this economy are the norm. And I would expect even NHL players are not that selfish. As Locke said, this is a #### sandwich, and most of us have had a bite. 30% reduction is nothing to complain about.

Exactly. where doublek is coming from is speaking from a different world than the one we're in now.
Nobody wants a paycut, but like you guys have said, most everyone's had a taste of the #### sandeich.and they have to make the best of a bad situation.
I think the vast majority of players understand that and the vote will easily pass. Player and owners are in the same boat, and I'm glad the union and NHL management gets that, unlike MLB.
