Still MIGHTY Posted December 10, 2012 Share Posted December 10, 2012 Wasn't till February 15th, 2005 they canceled the season. Owners don't mind sticking it out a bit longer.They have said they won't wait as long as they did the last time before cancelling.50 games is the threshold Gary has put out, although he continues to refuse to put a date on when 50 games would be possible. We probably have one more month. Mid-January is when I think we'd see the full chopping. | ANA | LAA | LAR | LAL | ASU | CSULB | USMNT | USWNT | LAFC | OCSC | MAN UTD | Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ninersdd Posted December 10, 2012 Share Posted December 10, 2012 I didn't comment on the events on Thursday, because I really wasn't that upset. Why? Because I know this is the NHL and as long as Bettman is at the top, you should just prepare for disappointment with this.

Sport Posted December 11, 2012 Share Posted December 11, 2012 I didn't comment on the events on Thursday, because I really wasn't that upset. Why? Because I know this is the NHL and as long as Bettman is at the top, you should just prepare for disappointment with this.It is possible to be both upset and unsurprised at the same time. I've been mentally prepared for this since the end of last regular season, but that doesn't mean that it doesn't piss me off beyond belief to actually see it happening. I guess I'm just mad that I was right Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The other has been acting out like a petulant child. Few negotiation issues can be said to be the fault of only pbr side. This is that rare instance, and the owners are counting on the "pox on both your houses" response to shield them from the consequences of their bad faith. The Green Bay Packers Uniform Database!

When I said it would be nice if both sides were negotiating I meant the owners should negotiate too, because it is clear as day the players are willing to deal and give up a lot and the owners led by little Fuehrer Bettman want to crush the and humiliate the players. As much a the players have given up we should be playing hockey already. www.sportsecyclopedia.com For the best in sports history go to the Sports E-Cyclopedia at http://www.sportsecyclopedia.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bosrs1 Posted December 12, 2012 Share Posted December 12, 2012 Not that anyone thought today's talks would be constructive. But it looks like no owners could be bothered to attend. Just Bettman, Fehr and a couple of players. Wonder how long it'll take them to hurl insults and break for a week long lunch break this time.http://espn.go.com/nhl/story/_/id/8737012/mediators-join-midweek-labor-talks-sources-say Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Players then would have 3-4 days to report"The key part is "Barring Stupidity". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
