not a chance (at least I don't see why he would)...the owners pretty much got exactly what they wanted...and what he promised...cost certaintly tied to revenue with a cap.

Goodenow stepped down, IMHO, because he didn't like the deal but felt enormous pressure from the players to settle. He was fully against a cap...and supported the players to the extent that he didn't draw a paycheque himself during the lockout. It's not a "bad" deal, but they *clearly* have lost a lot of financial ground.

It doesn't follow that the owners "won" though. That remains to be seen. If smaller markets can bring back the fans (teams like the Leafs will still sellout every game), then they will have PWNED the players in this battle.




Car-less for the first time in years...
