Apparent full schedule available through multiple sources now. Still not official.
Wow, a 6-day break in late March?

NHLPA concluded ratification vote at 8 am ET. Awaiting results. Lockout not over (no sked, trades, signings) until MOU is completed/signed

No one can say exactly when MOU gets signed, probably no earlier than this afternoon but it could be after that tho "today" seeems expected
The MOU will probably include a precise start time or specific reference when teams are free to do all business such as signing/trades
Bob McKenzie @TSNBobMcKenzie
It's my expectation some GMs are sitting on trades/signings that are done or close to done and as soon as gun goes off, there'll be activity

NHL and NHLPA still "hammering away" at CBA MOU at this hour... League isn't open for business officially until MOU is completed
I wonder if Fehr will just sign the paper and the CBA is officially good to go, or will he drag it out all day and wait till tomorrow or something.

NHLPA @NHLPA
Per agreement with the NHL, we will announce results of player vote later today. Discussions to finalize the MOU continue this morning
I imagine the Flyers asked for the 6 day break, they seem to do that every year for team building. I didn't think they could fit it in with the schedule this year though.

No building availability in Philly, could not fit road games into new puzzle. It was a 4-game road trip on the original schedule. Could still end up with a road game when official schedule is released.
Im waiting patiently for Sabres tickets to go on sale so I can buy tickets for next Sunday.
