According to Bruce Garrioch, the NHL didn’t like that the NHLPA increased the amount in the make whole that the players suggested.

The players plan calls for $393 million to go into the make whole while the owners don’t want to budge from $211 million.

Aaron Ward tweets “In NHLPA estimation, it would take $592M to honor current contracts and it is a concession to take a $200M ‘haircut’ in this proposal”

Earlier today Sidney Crosby said that the NHLPA is offering much less than they think they deserve from the make whole.

Apologies to all the loyal, passionate fans out there. We clearly do not have a willing negotiating partner.—
