This was predicted when the latest CBA was reached. It has taken a while to play out, but the NHL is moving to an NBA type salary structure where the stars bank big $$$ and everyone else fights over the scraps. I do wonder how the NHLPA feels about this evolution. The stars are greatly outnumbered, but they might have outsized clout.
