Do you think the NHL can continue to function financially with some small concessions from the players? I see this more as a need for a bit more than that: not nearly as much as last time but something where the revenue scales go back towards 50-50 not 60-40.

It's funny (tragic) as this is the same as baseball. Ultimately, the deal wasn't that different than one that could have been done from the start if both parties just negotiated in good faith and put their true opening gambits on the table instead of the stupid we see now.
