The CBA is a big, scary 457 page document which has been legalised to death. How do I know it’s been legalised to death? I’m a law student. I see this shit every single day with fabulously over-written legislation and research papers as well as within ancient textbooks. I’m used to it. I decipher it for an education.
The CBA is the bible of the hockey business. It governs how we acquire players, what we can do with them, how much we can pay them, how we can construct and run our teams, and the finicky procedural rules we must adhere to.
The number of fans however, that completely, or even reasonably understand the finer details of the CBA, is minimal. Reading the CBA is a daunting task. I know this. I’ve read it twice (I’m sick like that) .
To save you the trouble however, I’ve read it again for you and this time I’m breaking it down, Article by Article.
So here I present! Naked Shootout: A Stripped Down Look at the CBA
Well I present it sometime soon..

Awesome idea. As one of those who has read it, I think it’s a great idea to have things spelled out for those who it intimidates!
