What's your idea Atomic Wedgie?
- SPIDEROCKSTAR

To propose a new revenue sharing model that makes absolutely no sense whatsoever, but have a little fun on a boring Friday afternoon.

Thanks for playing, everyone.

Gents you can only share what you made in profit, otherwise your business loses money. League wide combined profits added up to 260mil. Revenue sharing could not exceed this.

Last year the players pocketed 1.3 billion while the owners pocketed 260mil. That’s what this is all about. Player solution is for owners to spread around thier 260mil so that more of it ends up in player pockets.

This is why there will be no season. Current system is stupid

- Oilerman

so let's spread it out evenly amongst the owners about 8.7 mill for each team.

Trippled Revenue sharing pot = Win for Players

Every team benefits from Revenue Sharing = Win for the Players/Owners

The Revenue Sharing pot not included in calculating the Players Percentage = Win for the Owners

What is this communist Russia? How about the players at the top end share with the guys at the bottom? Or better yet help out retired players?

Why should the owners be the only ones sharing revenue?

If the 600 mil in Wedgies proposal is not in the HRR, the players are contributing,
but keep that on the down low.

Yes, but you are forgetting that you would also be receiving money from the pot.

Everybody wins.

And more importantly, everybody contributes, so all teams have an incentive to turn a profit.

I don't really see how the NHLPA could object to this.

Can I participate in revenue sharing too? ....maybe all fans? The pot will be worth billions! ...Participaction!
