Doesn't the NHLPA board or negotiating committee decide if a membership vote
is to proceed?...That's something I don't understand....Goodenow said at his
press conference that "a few" owners expressed they would accept the Players
offer if they could...I find that irresponsible when the Players were'nt
allowed to vote on the League's offers...There are likely several players
wishing they could have voted...Goodenow is toast next election for NHLPA
president IMO.
