Your post-splitsville date was with hockey's version of The Eggshell Plaintiff? Color me impressed. I once overheard a puck bunny in the Aud tell her seat neighbor that Lindros was a hottie, but only when he has his helmet on (which is probably a good thing for him to remember, given his apparent lack of any bones between his brain and scalp).
And, yes, the players are greedy enough to take all that they can get. Can you blame them, greedy associates? The owners, on the other hand, have apparently just discovered that someone has been forging their signatures on million dollar cheques to people like Bobby Holik.
Their position on forcing a salary cap reminds me of the classic definition of "chutzpah" -- the kid who kills both of his parents, and then tells the judge he should stay out of jail because he's an orphan. Essentially, they are saying "please, keep the demon who has possessed my right hand from signing Alexi Kovalev to a $100 million contract!" Idiots.
