Last year the NHL was able to finally get the entire LA market into hockey. This year they took a dump on that and lost hockey in not only LA but a lot of other places as well.
In Spain, when people are unhappy about something there are riots. Wonder when Canadians take matters into their own hands and have a Vancouver moment again to end this lock out.
Ignore the noise. They are so close to a deal. The NHL got Fehr to put contract term limits on paper. Don't listen to the BS. A little more yin and yang.
How the hell can you let these (relatively) minor issues cancel a season? I have to think that Fehr and the league do not "agree on dollars".

TSN says the NHL flipped it **** about the NHLPA offer not being 10 years and that's why they took things off the table
I mean, really...because the offer wasn't for 10 years, they're shutting talks down and pulling **** off the table? Ridiculous. I'm sure there are other issues, like the contract terms, that still aren't right there, but cmon
Did Fehr know the NHL's response before he started his press conference?
I kind of have to wonder if that was the case.
Even if he didn't, however, all the NHL had to do was stay silent or say that they're considering it and then go back to negotiating tomorrow. No need to play into Fehr's grandstanding. Instead, they flip their **** and here we are
Especially since its not over whether or not to have one, but a difference of 4 years
3 years or rather just one with re-signing. Seriously, if these little issues are what kills the season, there are no words to describe how stupid they are.

Wow. If that's the case, the PA should make it 10 years. 2 more years of playing without a lockout. You'll still get your lucrative pay checks.

Would've been cool if he answered his phone during the press conference and let us real the rejection in real time.
Enough is enough. The dog and pony show went on for months and it's too late in the game to be playing chess matches on trying to see who blinks. It's December 6th already. Get a God damn deal done.
I dislike the man, but please for the of God, let Dolan in the meetings!!
Please happen. I need the entertainment
