More Blame Game
Continuing to look back on The Weekend of False Revival, Mario Lemieux spoke with the Pittsburgh Post Gazette about the players’ invitation, no deal being offered and wondering about motives.
As I’ve mentioned before: skates on or not, Mario Lemieux is an owner now and he makes no bones about it. He criticizes the players the most someone in his position can, and continues to praise Gary Bettman and Bill Daly.
Despite the non-dealings, Lemieux wants to get a new CBA done asap:
“I think a deal has to be reached in a couple of months,” Lemieux said. “After that, you start losing sponsorships. People start spending money elsewhere. Season-ticket [holders], as well. People find other things to do.”
