No future meeting set at this time between the NHL and NHLPA.

NOPE

NOPE

Details leaking: Make Whole back at $211M (+$50M for pensions).

Best news of the day right here.

GAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH

Mediators certainly seemed to help, nice move players.

@NYDNRangers: Daly: Parties in separate rooms all day, players working on something right now, no conclusion to mediation process @NHL

 

[Socreges]

Players: What now, sir?
Fehr: Back to twitter!

 

[Socreges]

@NYDNRangers: Daly: Parties in separate rooms all day, players working on something right now, no conclusion to mediation process @NHL

I love when tweets within minutes of each other are completely contradictory. The amount of misinformation from reporters has been stupifying, even beyond what they're capable of during the trade deadline.

Daly said players are meeting right now and are expected to get back to Beckenbaugh tonight. Daly said no offer is on the table.

Like this one?!

Just fucking end it and cancel at this point. I didn't fall for it this time but I'm tired of all the "I still think we'll have a season" from the pundits.

 

[Red_Man]

You have to think that if the owners have put their "take it or leave it" offer back on the table, it's only a matter of time until the players push to take it, or push for a vote on it.

I will no longer get excited about promising developing details, but I do hope there is a season

 

[Pharros]

So many random conflicting reports... So far it's looking pretty NOPE at the moment though it seems.

So you're joining the NOPEtrain?

Official leak--Bettman's final plea:

I know. It's all wrong. By rights we shouldn't even be here. But we are. It's like in the great stories, Mr. Fehr. The ones that really mattered. Full of darkness and danger, they were. And sometimes you didn't want to know the end. Because how could the end be happy? How could the world go back to the way it was when so much bad had happened? But in the end, it's only a passing thing, this shadow. Even darkness must pass. A new day will come. And when the sun shines it will shine out the clearer. Those were the stories that stayed with you. That meant something, even if you were too small to understand why. But I think, Mr. Fehr, I do understand. I know now. Folk in those stories had lots of chances of turning back, only they didn't. They kept going. Because they were holding on to something.

HOPE

Brendan Morrison: players asked if they wanted to accept last week's proposal. You can guess the answer

Who cares about what players think, what matters is what Fehr is able to make the players AT the meeting believe.

I know what you're thinking. And sure that would be a perfect solution at first. The on-ice product would suffer a little, but the post-game interviews would be more interesting, and more articulate. But over time they'd unionize as well. The NHLMA would demand fair compensation and we'd be right back where we started.

Im surprised theres even a shred of optimism in any nhl fan at this point. I gave up hope in october.

That about wraps it up for hockey. I can't wait for the National Ultimate Frisbee League to take over.

What's the next biggest sport (apart from Amateur/College leagues) after NFL/NBA/MLS/NHL/MLB? If it was Canada I'd just say Lacrosse, if it was Europe I'd say Handball, but in the US? I have no idea.

Fehr says there was no change in positions from either side...doesn't know if there will be further meetings.

This day belongs to Team Nope.

WHERE IS YOUR HOPIUM NOW.

hey guys

let's call in mediators and hope only the NHL moves

THIS IS IT, FELLAS! LAST CHANCE TO SWITCH SIDES, NOPERS!!!

 

[Plinko]

The NHL holds every last card here. I think the players are slowly starting to realize that.

 

[cube444]

Posturing. A deal will get done here.

 

[DopeyFish]

Posturing. A deal will get done here.

yeah, an agreement to not meet tomorrow

that's the only agreement they can ever seem to make

 

[Marvie_3]

The NHL holds every last card here. I think the players are slowly starting to realize that.

If they'd realized it earlier, they wouldn't have lost $610m(and counting) in salaries so far.

 

[Heretic]

I just caught up with the thread...


THE SUN WILL COME OUT... TOMORROW!
