Union rejects offer

The NHLPA yesterday rejected the latest formal offer from the NHL, which was still based on a salary cap and also included the players' offer of a 24% rollback in salaries. Talks are set to resume today in the New York area, this time with NHL Commissioner Gary Bettman and union chief Bob Goodenow in attendance. It is expected that Goodenow will negotiate off of the players' last proposal of December 9. TSN.ca contemplates the many legal avenues that may be taken in the near future.
