Agreed. The NHLPA will likely say "we chose certainty and stability over gambling, and we won". I can understand why the NHLPA would not have a huge appetite to renegotiate in those circumstances.
Nonetheless (as already stated), I expect the NHLPA will make some concessions (likely in exchange for some other concessions from the league) and they will play hockey in January.
