I think much of the problem stems from the commissioners of the leagues. In my mind Tagliabue and Stern are head and shoulders ahead of Selig and Bettman in almost all facets of their jobs, from the games themselves to how they want to handle marketing, advertising, etc. Not to mention their relations with their respective unions. Football and basketball unions at least seem to sometimes be on the same page as the owners/commissioner, but rarely if ever is this seen in baseball or hockey. Baseball and hockey owners/players seem more intent on proving their side is right than on working out an equitable deal for both sides.

Never used to be like that. But who would think that the Alan Eagleson days of collusion with the owners were the "good old days" of hockey labour relations?
