    Wouldn't it be something for the season to start on Jan 1 with the only game being the Winter Classic? Make it happen!!

    Two interesting quotes from Bob Mackenzie and Pierre Lebrun:

    BM: "All I can tell you is there's a really bizarre dynamic right now and so many mixed signals coming from both sides"

    PL: "On one hand, don't think they're far from agreement on principle issues. But on flip side, clearly a sense this thing is hanging by a thread"


    It's interesting to say the least.

    They're talking about putting spin on things... taking the stuff off the table is total BS. No deal gets done that way.

    What a load of horse manure. This BS would never fly in the US if hockey was a major sport. On the one hand, you have fans of all the Canadian teams, and a hand full of US teams waiting patiently and very politely to fork over money to watch their favorite sport. On the other hand you have fans in other markets who couldn't care less, if they never saw another hockey game in their lives.


    I would like to see the reaction in the US, if the NFL or MLB tried to pull some of the same crap that the morons heading the NHL and NHLPA are doing. Wouldn't happen.

    It's sickening that a business has total disregard for their clientele.

    The MLB strike disagrees with you.

    So the owners are now refusing to negotiate if Don Fehr is in the room. This is such a farce.

    Both sides are ****ing insane or ******ed if they can't get a deal done when they are this close. Stop the ****ing politics and just get it done.

    Bring on the replacement players and show the players what the real word is like.

    Spin is the absoloutely right term.

    BOTH guys are putting their own ploy into the mix. I'd be interested to find out (not that I ever will) how much of they say is ACTUALLY true?

    First red flag is Fehr running to the cameras right after making his proposal.

    From deep inside players side: "We were ready to play again. But Don came in (Wed.) and told us we could get more and to hold out"

    adater adater ‏@adater

    That deep-inside-players quote came from depth player. They want to play, but top players still in Fehr camp. Could explode soon
    Can't wait to watch it go down.

    Not true, they said bringing in Fehr could be a potential deal breaker.
