Crows said:It is. But daly and bettman have both said that if the Union contacted them about a deal and uncancellation of the season, they would listen. Obviously.

417 TO MTL said:i agree, it's totally unfair and I cant believe they could do this to their own fanbase, it's bad enough that they spew lies through media channels to throw each other off, now they're making fans reopen the casket...that's horrible, can't believe this is happening
nomorekids said:because getting people's hopes up over "reports" from sources with no credibility is inciteful and pointless. when there's actual news outlets talking about things(in the case of the THN thing) then it's newsworthy. Otherwise, it's like saying Uncle Rico told you there's going to be a deal nailed out tomorrow.

you guys eat this up when the big E comes up in conversation.Newsguyone said:Eklund?
Are you serious?
Anyone with a brain realizes that the league and PA made far too much progress to simply call it off.
Bettman, knowing the PA was falling apart and desperate to play, cancelled the season, knowing that the players would fall in line within 24-48 hours.
If the PA caves, and it looks somewhat likely, we might still have hockey.

Doctor Zoidberg said:Explain to me how it's over. This lockout continues untill a new CBA is agreed to.

Mountain Dude said:The season. Read the thread title. Look at what we're refering to.
Doctor Zoidberg said:The thread is covering the ongoing discussions between players, agents, owners, etc. Those discussions are not over by a long shot. There are plenty of people, Steve Yzerman for one, who still believe something can get worked out. So no, the discussions to save this season are not over. If you were saying the season is over, then yes, I would have to agree.
