Maybe other CPer's won't agree that losing a year of hockey was worth it to get a salary cap. I don't know if the Flames would still be in Calgary without a cap.
The Flames owners seem to willing to spend to nearly the cap every year since, but they seemed more budget-minded when there wasn't a cap.

2004 Lockout was worth it. But what did 94 and 2012 really do ?
No way can it happen again
