Default Larry Brooks: The NHLPA screwed itself

Larry is a lifelong Bettman detractor and union shill. So this shouldnt come as a surprise, but he hates everything to do with the new deal.

He is the only one i have read or heard who is taking this stance.

Quote:
The NHLPA bargained itself into stagnating wages for the next four-to-six-to-eight seasons essentially so the players could be in a lower tax bracket. Is that the way you negotiate your contract? The union is not only putting controls on the cap through the pandemic, but throughout the length of the CBA.

Well, let me tell you this about the players. This generation has made it more difficult for the next. This generation has turned the union into a star-driven association. There was evidence of that with the split of the PA take of the 2016 World Cup further solidified by this deal that works to the advantage of marquee players with expensive long-term contracts and big-money players on their final contracts.
