They announced in November that without a CBA there will be no draft.McDonald19 said:did any reporter ask him yet what will happen to the 2005 draft?
Deal? The NHL won't recover from this. Baseball barely did and that's the national pastime in the US. There will probably just be a new league with teams based in Canada and the northern US, which IMO is the way it should be.
He also indicated there will be a season next year.

The NHL just cancelled the season and showed they meant it with "The hockey doesn't matter"
This was not about getting a deal done, it was about getting another latchkey for the owners as the head of the NHLPA. They went out to bust the union, I'm hoping the players now tell the NHL where to go and remove their offer of a hard cap and hell cancel next season too.
Cancel the whole goddamned league all I care.
The NHL is the joke of professional sports
