Hockey has them now because the union head who led MLB to strike just before the playoffs, after collecting all their paycheques, is now leading the players union. Tough to negotiate and trust your "partner" when he has proven he doesn't care for anything but getting the star players paid. Because of him doing that no league governor or commissioner will ever trust the players word again, and seeing as the owners have all the toys the players will lose each time.
