NHL and NHLPA reach an agreement - lockout FINALLY over
http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/...cba-framework/
NHL lockout: Owners, players reach tentative agreement on CBA framework After more than 16 consecutive hours of bargaining on the 113th day of the lockout, the NHL and NHLPA reached a tentative agreement on the framework of a new collective bargaining agreement around 5 a.m. Sunday. “We have reached an agreement on the framework of a new collective bargaining agreement, the details of which need to be put to paper,” NHL commissioner Gary Bettman said during a news conference, standing next to NHLPA Executive Director Donald Fehr. “We’ve got to dot a lot of I’s and cross a lot of T’s,” Bettman said. “There’s still a lot of work to be done, but the basic framework of the deal has been agreed upon.” The deal still requires ratification from the players and the NHL’s Board of Governors before it becomes official, but the league is expected to play a 50- or 48-game season that starts no later than Jan. 19. |

I'm mad as hell about there being another lockout, but at least it seems to be a long term agreement with a mutual option to opt out after year 8.
Here's to no more lockouts. |

I have no beef with rugby, it's as manly a sport as there is. I was referring to him as a person.

Hockey is fun during the playoffs. I guess that's true of just about all sports though.

After the abortion that was the Chiefs season, it's going to be liberating to watch a team in the Penguins who know WTF is going on. Can't wait for the start of the season. As much as I'd like to say I would be "sticking it to them" by locking the NHL out of my interest, I can't. Hockey is like crack to me. I need my fix.
