Personally, I just assumed there'd be a push in the days leading up that deadline so that one, or both groups, could claim they're trying to "save the WC for the fans". It's such an easy and obvious opportunity for these guys to try to score some PR points, so it surprises me little that whispers of "meaningful" discussions between Fehr and Daly are making the rounds.

Serious question:
How surprised would you be if I told you a proposal is forth coming from the NHL in the next few days?
Eugene Melnik has spoken out about how the league is handling it (sorry - no link - and look for a fine coming his way - hope you can take my word on that for now)
Some players are now putting pressure on the PA because they are about to start losing checks.
Now it gets serious.
