The Optimism meter looks eerily similar to the Jets-meter on TSN just before they got the Thrashers.... hmmm....

If that is true it is only to muddy the waters sufficiently that public sentiment does not rest solely with the owners.

They would only be hoping that the public perception would now be "How can the NHL reject all four proposals".

It would be game playing, not actual negotiation.

They are all the same except for the title, it's a test to see if the NHL actually reads them.

He looks more professional because Gary looks less like a jacka$$

I dunno about the optimism meter, but as far as these negotiator/owner/players go, the douchebag meter is maxing out

Like the Hawks qualifying offers a few years back the PA's faxes must've not been going through.

Imo, I would say it's simply 4 different scenario's where the deal is 'softened' for the players. I wouldn't read anymore into it than that.

Shouldn't you be in the corner hiding your shame for a couple more days?

Still can't figure out which Gary Bettman orifice the NHLPA's fourth offer involves.

They decided they'd give them 4 shiitty proposals instead of just 1.
