Bettman will not go into how escrow would work. HRR drop from 57 to 50 would mean this issue must be addressed.

Am told in NHL offer there is a proposal designed to "protect" players for salary reductions in the initial years

Need to see provision for year 1 salary protection. Initial player response: 1% increase. Still a 12-13% reduction in yr 1 (7/57= 12.2%).
