Talks still ongoing, sense that settlement will come today -- all signs point to it, everyone is expecting it, expects they will not emerge without it.

I feel that they won't come out without a deal and if they do I will be severely dissapointed.
how many times it's been done? or almost done? or done in principles?bcrt2000 said:Stan Fischler reports a deal is done according to PK from breakingsports (as of 9:11 am).. unfortunately he didn't say whether Fischler was on a radio station or what

Actually, I think that, after Bob found the location, everyone on both negotiating teams piled into taxis trying to get away from him, and they have been negotiating in the taxis while Goodenow has been tailing them in his car shouting at the top of his lungs out the window "No deal!!! No deal!! We'll stay out another year!!! Whatever it takes!!! It'll work, Trevor!!! I swear it!!!!"ZaphodBeeblebrox said:
I heard reports they had to resort to drugging his coffee...there was temptation to shave his eyebrows once he was out, but Bettman couldn't find a scapegoat to pin it on.
