Has the board been reinforced?

FWIW, I heard a very similar thing on Fox Sports Radio on Friday night, I believe. It wasn't during an interview, though... I had just flipped on the radio, and they were coming out of break, and they had created some kind of promo where they were essentially mocking ESPN for not being all over the story that they (FSR) claimed to have broken--that a deal would be announced on Tuesday. Then the late-night host said a few words about it, and that was it. Afterward, I checked this board to see if any news had broken about a Tuesday announcment, but I didn't see any, so I pretty much dismissed what I'd heard on the radio. Interesting to see that someone else heard this now too on the same network a day or so later.TheCoach said:I'm currently listening to Fox Sports Radio, and I swear that I just heard Howard Bloom (The sports business guy) say that the NHL and NHLPA will announce a deal in principle on Tuesday. The music was loud so I did not hear the rest, but the host of the show then played Kate Adams singing the national anthem because it reminded him of the Flyers winning the cup such a long time ago.
Spungo said:Yup, the first tuesday in August. I agree with you, brah.

RedSoxNation said:I don't know Howard Bloom, but I do know of his website. He did publish this story on Friday (sorry the link doesn't appear to work but I know someone who subsribes to his service and that person sent me a copy of Bloom's report). His report suggests Tuesday or in the next few days.
The Return of the NHL -- All but assured
In the Frozen North today is Canada Day – Canada’s 138th birthday. In the country where the National Hockey League still matters (as it does in several key American markets) Tuesday July 5, 2005 (or in the days shortly after Tuesday) is likely going to be a real holiday in Canada. It’s expected the National Hockey League and the National Hockey League Players Association will announce that they reached an agreement in principal.
Following Tuesday’s announcement (or whatever day it falls on shortly after that day), the NHL Board of Governors is expected to endorse the agreement. ................
