I'd have more respect for him, if he did.

Instead all I get to hear is the "poor me and poor us" BS.

The 100th year anniversary will obviously be a big thing for the NHL, and Fehr knows this. A CBA needs to be redone at this point just like it is being done now? Get the drift?
- mush124

Oh, I get it. Maybe you need to get it a bit more. It seems the trend is that either you take this deal or we lock you out, pretty ugly doing that during the 100 year anniversary.

Once this disgrace is over, Fehr will be gone. Being the excutive director of the NHLPA will not be his life's work.
- OLDSCHOOL#6

I've heard that. That once this is over, Fehr will resign his position as Executive Director pf the NHLPA. We'll see.

the league and the PA have never done the same math....let's wait to hear from the league first.

Fehr is an idiot

I may have philosophical issues with that - D.Fehr

Per Dan Rosen, "Fehr has said players proposed an 8yr CBA with an opt out after 6. Players also proposed an 8yr max deal on contracts. The fact that they went public with their offer again means nothing else in the offer is any good

Fehr is an idiot
- flashfire

Maybe you don't like him. I get that. Have to blame somebody for no NHL Hockey. But he keeps getting a better deal for his players.

PR move to put the pressure on the league.

The league will counter....this is not over.

If that is all that Fehr has said. Then Dan Rosen badly misses the boat.

EK....calm down, you're drinking the koolaid again.

actually he hasn't got any deal at all and the players have already lost at least 20 games of salary and done major damage to the game

Hes the only one, im not falling for this again. Lets see what the NHL has to say and we'll see where we are.

It is a lot better then in thought it would be though.

Actually hes gotten No deal for the players last i checked

Misandry gets old fast.
- MunsterMike

I am a man so therefore I do not hate the species. So misandry is the wrong term utilized .

I simply do not respect most men because of their world wide egos.

Hating and not respecting are 2 totaly different avenues.

Example : look no further than the male ego as to why there will be no hockey season this year.

Yea there is something to respect.

Women rule this world in more ways than one dude. You and many other men are just to 'manly' or insecure I suppose, to admit it!

Fehr is an idiot
- flashfire

He's far from that.

- TrueBlue9182

that was the PA spin on things to put the pressure on the league by making their proposal public.

League won't like the following:

Players contract length, they will counter, expect something like 6yrs, 7yrs for the team who has the players right.

back diving contract issue is still far apart

League will counter on CBA length also IMO

PA wants a short CBA they obviously "just want to play"

actually he hasn't got any deal at all and the players have already lost at least 20 games of salary and done major damage to the game
- flashfire

I'll correct that in that the lockout has caused major damage to the game. There are two sides to this lockout. And I think you know what I meant in stating that he keeps getting a better deal.

philosophical issues

NBA and NFL has no issues with that.

No way they owners come back and say the agree with what Fehr said.....BUT talks didn't completely break off....leaves hope a deal will get done.

Pierre LeBrun ‏@Real_ESPNLeBrun
When Fehr says he thinks there's agreement on total dollars, that includes accepting NHL's Make Whole offer he says

Actually hes gotten No deal for the players last i checked
- Cheeseballin

So I have to explain what is meant by that?

drop the puck
i hope fans dont flock back like sheep
we have to teach these guys a lesson
