Can someone please explain just what exactly a CBA is? Looking over the Atlantic, the concept of having a season effectively cancelled just seems a little crazy. I don't think it could happen in any of our major sports. Why is there a CBA and why can not having one in place cause such chaos?

It basically sets up everything in the league. Revenue, rules, salaries, rookie salaries, salary caps, penalties for salary cap infringement, penalties for a bunch of stuff.

 

Essentially a CBA is what sets up the protocol in the league, the main one (always) being revenue sharing between player associations and the owners.
