I'm not sure how to take it. Either Goodenow has been forced aside behind the scenes (him not being involved in the past few weeks of meetings at all).....Gary B was reportedly at at least one...Or Bob G is showing up to formally reject the offer. I don't see him being one to show up to formally accept the fact that the owners are getting what he said he would never accept.

You know what? If he's going to the meeting, I bet that means that there can no longer be much doubt that there will be a season.

Mojo 640 radio is reporting that the meetings are over.

Saskin said that the NHL proposal was a minor variation of what was already talked about and did not provide a basis for negotiating a deal.

But they will be meeting again tommorow with Bettman and Goodenow present.

This will be not be considered a valid post until you post pictures as proof!......Mpeg's would be preferable.


Seriously, I need some entertainment.

Any confirmation of the rumour that Sideshow Bob was heading over there with a baseball bat? It IS Jersey, after all. ;)

Time to rumble.

640 just had the NHLPA's statement saying they'll meet again tomorrow with Gary and Bob present at the meeting.

Gary and Bob...I don't know if I'm happy or sad...it'll be interesting--to say the least...

It's like watching Dumb and Dumber...I hope they both wear those crazy colourful suits...

I'm guessing the nhlpa rejected the aspects of the proposal that are unreasonable. (no holdouts, age of free agency, etc etc) got on the phone with goodenow and went back into the room with his ideas about what to tweak and what not to tweak. I have a feeling that the news at the end of the day willl be a meeting tommorow between bettman and goodenow.
you idiot had you know. :joker:

Not good news IMO. Meeting will to be confirm cancellation of the season. :banghead:
Why would they announce together that the season would be cancelled, I think only Bettman would do that.

this can only mean good things.

I don't know why some are getting excited. The NHLPA is not going to against a Cap, and the NHL isn't going to move off it...

This is basically a game of Chicken.
