    The National Hockey League and Salary Arbitration: Time for a Line Change STEPHEN M. YOOST* Mediate Damnit.1 The end crowns all, And that old common arbitrator, Time, 2 Will one day end it. I. INTRODUCTION On February 16, 2005 the National Hockey League (NHL or League) became the first professional sports league in North America to ever cancel an entire season on account of a labor dispute. 3 Three-hundred and one icy days of bitter conflict-the longest labor dispute in North American professional sports history-finally ended on July 13, 2005 with a new 4 collective bargaining agreement (CBA) between NHL players and owners. Much of the excitement surrounding the end of the lockout focused on the League's new rules of play, which the owners hope will promote scoring, * J.D. candidate, The Ohio State University Moritz College of Law, 2006; B.A. magna cum laude, The College of William & Mary in Virginia, 2003.

I Fans Share Feelings with Daly, Lites, A.P., Nov. 10, 2004, available at http://sports.espn.go.com/nhl/news/story?id=1915737#. This was the message on a sign hoisted by a disgruntled fan at a "town-hall meeting" with NHL fans from the Dallas area, Dallas Stars President Jim Lites, and the NHL's head negotiator Bill Daly. The NHL held several of these "town meetings" to drum up support from loyal fans during the locked-out season of 2004-05. Id. The five-month negotiations between the League and the players' association (NHLPA) eventually failed, and the NHL cancelled the remainder of the 2004-05 season on February 16, 2005.

  • A Short History of Ejections David Vincent
    A Short History of Ejections David Vincent In 1889, the baseball rules were changed to allow an umpire to remove a player from the game for an offense. Previously, the arbiter could only fine such player. The new rule allowed the umpire to eject a player for the repetition of any finable offense. The fine system had started in 1879. The first person to be ejected was Dave Orr of the Columbus Colts of the American Association. He was upset about a call at 3B by umpire Fred Goldsmith on May 25, 1889 and was told by the arbiter that his services were no longer required that day. Seven days later, Buck Ewing of the National League’s New York Giants was tossed for foul language directed at umpire Wes Curry. Ewing was the first NL player to be ejected. Between 1924 and 1946 in the NL and 1907 and 1952 in the American League, a person ejected from the first game of a double header was disqualified from the second game. Before those rules were put in place, several players were ejected from both games played in one day. Jesse Burkett is the first known player to be ejected from both games of a double header. This occurred on August 4, 1897 when Burkett’s Cleveland Spiders were in Louisville. Burkett was tossed in each game for arguing about the strike zone with umpire Jimmy Wolf. The following list contains the people known to have been ejected from both game of a double header.
