A rule you can count on:

"Bad management causes strong unions." Ergo Bob Goodenow succeeding the owners patsy Alan Eagleson.

Then again, strong unions can also cause stronger management - Owners give Gary Bettman a 75% veto in the CBA negotiation, thereby negating Goodenow's tactic of freezing small markets while grouping medium and larger markets together.

The balancing act.
