Just wondering here. Just throwing it out there.
What if the league was to accept a harder luxery tax at around 40 million, then one at 45 million which is eve harder. Wouldn't surprise me at all if the NHLPA does offer something like this sometime down the road.
All 30 owners then get together and sign a contract stating that they wont spend more than 45 million. If they do spend more, then they get the boot, just like that NFL owner who was forced to move the team because he wouldnt build a new stadium (believe it was LA). Any new owner that comes into the NHL, before buying a team, he must sign this contract stating he wont spend more than 45 million. Basically have an owners cap.
Now I'm assuming the NHLPA would throw 'conspiracy' all over them, if they were to find out.
Is this a far fetched scenario, is it even possible. Or is it illegal basically. Some lawyer, please help me out.
