First two weeks or roughly 82 overall games of the season has just been cancelled since the NHL doesn't believe any deal will be done before the start of the season.
In terms of negotiations, neither side is discussing "core" issues and even the stuff that has less priority is causing disputes between both sides. Probably safe to assume this season will be completely dead if the lockout ends up killing off the Winter Classic this year. |

If they do return, a boycott of the Winter Classic by fans in that city would be amazing. Show how pissed they are.

NEW YORK (AP) -- The Kontinental Hockey League says some of its games will be broadcast in the United States on ESPN3 during the NHL lockout.
The Russian-based league announced on its website Tuesday that it plans to air five games in the next week on ESPN's the online streaming service. However, ESPN spokesman Josh Krulewitz said ''the agreement is not finalized.'' The KHL website indicated the first game shown will be between Dynamo Moscow and Ak Bars on Wednesday. Four other games were listed through Oct. 9. http://sports.yahoo.com/news/khl-pla...7584--nhl.html |

Owners put out a new deal today. asking for a 50-50 split of the revenues.
my gut is that is what they wanted all along. |

Think i might get the Online games package thing if they have it this year, but only if i can replay the game because i cant watch live games everynight. But if I can take my lappy to work and watch games, that would be Sketti and Butter.

Donald Fehr has urged the players to not accept the 50/50 offer, saying it will still greatly reduce salaries in the long run.
It never ends. |

They'd be really stupid not to although he's right in a way since the owners lied a lot about loosing money when the league has made billions since the last lockout. Also the owners probably will lock them out the next time considering their goal has always been the players share to be between 43-47% in the end.

Only the NFL managed to come up with something nice in that whatever the players lost as a percentage, it went to pensions and health insurance costs. Players gave up money now for the guarantee of better pensions while the owners didn't just pocket it like the NBA and NHL want. |

Die hard for life. I'm just talking about the NFL period tho. I watch the Colts ( as tough as it is ), but really have not had much interest in any other games or fantasy football or any of that stuff. I know the Falcons are undefeated, but i couldnt tell you who's leading the division or who has the most stats. I know where the Colts stand and thats about it. I just dont get into it like i used to. Not sure why. I used to get hyped for Sunday and Monday night games no matter who played.
Hockey however, was just really peaking my interest. And now this shit. |

Is it maybe because the Colts are not dominant like they used to be? Or sports is really just pissing you off that much with the business side of it? And yeah, this hockey lockout sucks. Games canceled up to Nov. 1st now

No i'm still a huge Colts fan. Going to the game this week. I just dont get into football Sunday much anymore. I have the sunday ticket. I like it, but i find myself getting bored watching other teams. I dont have the interest i once did. Maybe i'll get it back. I dunno. Focusing on other things anyways so... Really miss hockey tho. I miss seeing Kaner and Toews skate the ice.

NHL announced the next two weeks worth of games now canned and new earliest date possible is November 1st for a season.
Also hinted the next cut will be a lot larger than 2 weeks and the cut follow that potentially kills off the Winter Classic. Next cut occurs in a week if no new deal is done. According to the NHLPA, the owners appeared to have pulled back the 50-50 offer which is why everything stalled right now. |
