To have the voting be done right before you intend to implement the new CBA right before the start of FA and during the tag decision period ... seems like its courting disaster.

I think it only takes effect for this when the new league year starts. If no deal happens we still play this year under the old CBA.

That makes sense, so there is a fall back .. this year just defaults to the old CBA if a new CBA is not agreed to. Thank you
