Flyers Faithful is pleased to have Lyle Richardson, Paul Kukla, Jesse Spector, and Tyler Altmose to partake in our Five Questions series on the CBA. This is the last of a five-part series. What changes would you most like to see in the next CBA? Which proposed changes would you least like to see? Lyle Richardson: Ideally, I’d like to see the owners give up this misguided perception that continually slashing the players share of revenue is the cure-all to their woes. They tried it in this CBA, and it didn’t work. Slashing it again won’t change the result. Instead, I believe …

The amnesty buyout option wasn’t used much at the start of this CBA, because there weren’t a lot of teams with …

What are the biggest issues that need to be resolved in the next CBA? Lyle Richardson: For the owners, it’s the split of revenue with the players, as they’ll want to reduce it from 57 percent to around 50 percent. They’ll also seek a cap on contract lengths, to close that loophole of heavily front-loading deals to get a friendlier cap hit, and could seek to abolish or restricted movement clauses. …
