Saskin said the players won't present a new proposal Wednesday but added that the union is "committed to reach­ ing a fair deal that does not include a salary cap." Daly has maintained that the owners aren't prepared to make a new offer, either, since they put forth the last one. "Nothing has changed at this point," Daly said. "A lot will depend now as to what hap­ pens tomorrow whether that changes the dynamics in any material way." There have been no talks since Dec. 14. It was then that the sides sat down for the sec­ ond time in six days after not meeting for three months, but It will feel less constricting at a great job. any optimism was lost quickly. The players presented a pro­ posal that offered an immedi­ ate 24 percent rollback on all existing contracts, but since it didn't provide cost certainty it was rejected by the owners. A counterproposal was then presented by the NHL. Once the players' association saw that the offer included a salary cap, it was turned down imme­ diately.
