According to today's finnish newspaper Iltalehti, Christian Ruuttu (former 'Hawk & Sabre) the GM of FEL team Espoo Blues says that according to his sources NHL has already made a new secret proposal to NHLPA and the season could be saved.
Direct translation:
"as far as I know the new proposal has already been made"
"last thursday I was certain that the season would be cancelled but now I'm more hopeful, the season could be suddenly saved after all"
The same thing happened 10 years ago when Ruuttu was playing for Chicago Blackhawks and were their NHLPA representative
"suddenly we got the call that you must come over to USA in 2 days despite being told only one day earlier that there wouldn't be a season"
----
for those interested, Ruuttu has kept very close ties to NHL, especially Detroit which has sent their prospects & coaches to Finland for 2 years now to train with the FEL team.
We'll see...
