 Forbes is once again pulling numbers out of thin air. I would suggest that they would have been far better advised to read the [NHL-sponsored] Levitt Report, as its author had complete and unfettered access to all 30 of our clubs' financial information. |
| 'The responses we are getting in-market have been very strong, virtually without exception. |
| ['] 'We are excited about being the big fish in the small pond for the short term, and that smaller pond is going to get bigger, ... 'In the immediate term, we are going to get the attention, devotion and coverage that we want. The exposure will be good for us. |
| [Daly sees a different outcome, saying under the old collective bargaining agreement even rebuilding teams lost players before they were ready to compete because they could no longer afford them.] You've got teams now that have to be broken up because of the financial reality of the situation, ... So the system they want to maintain does not foster team-building unless you're in a situation where you can afford to team-build. |
| [Labor talks resume Tuesday followed by a board of governors meeting Wednesday.] I really don't know what to expect, ... Hopefully what we talked about in the last hour of the last meeting will lead to further negotiation and possibly a framework down the road. |
| [NHL commissioner Gary Bettman and league GM will be dining at a renowned Italian restaurant in midtown New York tonight.] This really isn't a 'meeting' as much as an informal get-together dinner, ... There is no agenda. I imagine people will ask questions about where we are in the process, and we will certainly provide answers. |
| [NHL VP Bill Daly reiterated he thinks the owners and players would meet again this week.] Yes, I believe we will be meeting with the union again before the end of the week. As nothing is scheduled at this time, I don't know when or where, nor do I know who will be attending. We are hoping to hear back from the union soon, ... We feel that what we laid out on Thursday night could form the basis of a new agreement. But I'm not sure the union shares that view. |
| [Pound] unfairly tainted our athletes. In our view, his comments were unfair and not accurate. |
| [The league went to the table Saturday aiming to hammer out key issues in an effort to get a new CBA in place, but was stonewalled by the union's unwillingness to negotiate.] I fear the union may have had a different agenda with their press release and the leaks (of a deal) Friday night, ... They wanted us back at the table and didn't even bring a new proposal. |
| [The NHL maintains its willingness to discuss anything the Players' Association brings to the table, but a luxury tax is still not a starting point.] We have said repeatedly that a proposal centered around a luxury tax will not work for us, ... A tax-based system is too unpredictable and the league's problems too severe for us to take chances on the future of the game. At the same time, we believe that a meaningful proposal from the union, as opposed to the regressive proposal they gave us on Sept. 9, would be a positive development in the process, and we remain prepared to discuss and negotiate over anything and everything the union proposes. |
| Any of these new systems would continue to pay star players multi-million dollar salaries, would see the maintenance of an average player salary of $1.3 million and would pay the players more than 50 percent of league revenues, |
| Any suggestion that Bryan's positive test means that we have some widespread problem in the National Hockey League, I would suggest, is a faulty assumption. |
| At some point, I think it's important to take a stand and indicate a willingness to do whatever is necessary to protect your contractual and legal rights. The league certainly supports Washington's decision to do that here. |
| At this point I think that's probably a fair assessment. |
| Brendan was fantastic throughout the process, ... He always put the game first. |
