If they leave after 10 minutes, then we're in trouble. If they decide to order food in, I think we're on the way to an agreement.

O hai guize, have I missed anything?

I understand they might have just waited exactly long enough to totally fuck Columbus in the ass.

We were just all watching Ron Burkle talk with Don Fehr in a hallway. Other owners flitted around, too. Everyone seemed cheerful.

Maybe Parros went and knocked Jacobs' teeth down his throat.

Owners left the meeting room after 15 minutes, and have apparently left the building. Not sure what to make of that, could simply be dinner time. The only thing the media has said is that they look happy. Sooo...there's that.


EDIT: Misread that tweet, still in the building.

Oh ploop. This roller coaster of emotions.

That wasn't cool pix, not cool at all.

Been reading the reaction around the web at the absolute joy that progress is being made.

So Bettman was right. We'll come back. Like that battered wife screaming at the cops to bring back the guy she got the black eyes from because she "loves him". We will keep letting ourselves get slapped around until he finally kills us.

Can confirm @RealKyper report that NHL has talked 10-year deal. Originally floated that idea, never proposed it. Not sure if formal now.

Pretty much this.

I'm not buying any tix or merch this year. Watching it on TV is enough for me this "season".

Guy on RDS saying the NHL has told coaches to start prepping for camp.

@KatieStrangESPN
#CBA Multiple sources confirm that NHL countered in last meeting


And if there's a 10 year deal I'll be 100% back. Which is sad. But man I love NHL hockey.

 

[pixburgher66]

Hahahah...jerks.

@DougMaclean
Counter now from NHL. Both sides working to get done by friday.

 

[SLY]

I haven't visited NHL.com since the summer.

 

[flyersfan4706]

I dont find NHL.com useful anyway.

I wonder what the people going "Done with this league. Not spending any more time wasted on this. I have better things to do" are thinking right now.

And yes, I'll be back. $10 cheesesteaks and all.

 

[SLY]

Unless there are tix that I find under face value, I'm not going to any games, unless they make a good playoff run, I may do a playoff game. Definitely not wasting any money on merch, I just really need the games to watch at night again.
