Recchi to players: Offers only getting worse

Oh screw everybody. I'm wondering if the Harper gov't can dole out some back to work legislation. This is having a far bigger effect on people's livelihoods than teacher strikes or anything else they've mandated BTW legislation for.

Hey, I'm an owner, too, so I see both sides.

Now that's funny...

Recchi's feeling pretty frisky cuz he's got a street named after him and isn't playing anymore.

I'd be very careful driving on Recchi Street.

Its already halfway through November !!!! A December start would have to be a reach at this point?????

"My advice," mused Recchi, part owner of the Kamloops Blazers ..... "is that the longer it goes, the worse [the offer] is going to get [for the players]. Hey, I'm an owner, too, so I see both sides."

Thanks, Mark! True words spoken by a guy with some credibility. The question is: Will the Fehrer allow his players to think for themselves?

Contracts? What contracts?

Once they got rid of the Winter Classic it was game, set and match on the season, a December start is not only delusional, it's insulting.

I thought it was laughable too.

On a lighter note, pitchers and catchers report in about 3 months.

On an even lighter note the Browns claim they will be relevant this century

Zip it Recchi. If the players before hadnt stood up 'ole Al Eagleson might have half the money you made in his pockets. Maybe donate your big NHLPA pension cheques to a charity.

Its all good Swampy.........you should be proud that a man of your age can do it twice so close together ;-)

Wrong, Mark.

What the players should be agreeing to are the contract limitations and later free agency. It's a bit naive to think that if the players drop their demand to make the contracts whole that the CBA will magically be signed.

Hey, I'm an owner, too....

Really? You're an owner, TOO? No, Mark, you are an owner. Period. And suggesting that the players give in like they did last time when you WERE a player is a bit silly. Proving once again that hockey players are nice guys but not the brightest bulbs on the tree.
