The problem is that with the majority of teams being in the US, and the fact that Americans don't appreciate a good sport like hockey, TV contracts are next to nothing.
A think a cap is a necessary and for the most part I agree with the owners. Some players are just far to greedy which unfortunately makes the entire league look good when a lot of players just want to play.
Take Kariya last season signing with the Avs for something like $2mil. Any team would have jumped at the chance to get him for 6-7mil, but he justed wanted to play with Selanne, he didn't care about the money.
What gets me is that the players who say they won't play under a cap are more than willing to go to the WHL for the duration of the lockout. [img]graemlins/1ponder.gif[/img] Last time I checked, the WHL has a salary cap.
