“It’s been a really challenging offseason, without a CBA, you don’t know how much money you have. For better or worse, I’m pretty meticulous and pretty stubborn and I tend toplan things a long time in advance, and when you don’t tell me the rules, I tend to not be at my best. I think we want to add an impact piece or two before the season gets started, andthat’s certainly our goal and that’s what we’ve been working on. As soon as we get that direction [on new CBA rules] we’ll move as fast as we can.”
