Lots of hockey news coming up
Well, just been reading on Yahoo and TSN and other sources, it seems the lockout is all but finished, with both the league and union agreeing on a salary cap (finally), and they just need to iron out the details. Apparently it will be finalized by the end of the month, but maybe that's being too optimistic. Who knows. They're saying the NHL players will be able to play in the Olypmics and whatnot too, which is cool.
In other news, Disney sold the Mighty Ducks. Brian Burke is gonna be their new GM ![]() I dunno, looks like the NHL is finally getting on track, hopefully they'll get all this shit sorted and the 2005-06 season will be underway in no time. \_0__/ ![]() ![]() ![]() Regards, road doggy dogg |

Oh welllllll, hopefully they'll learn from their mistakes and just put this all behind them. Getting bored with a lack of hockey around

it's good for the ducks, he's one of the best money GM's in the league. Turned Vancouver around big time.

Yeah I heard 3 too. Hopefully it's longer though
It's gonna pretty crazy once everything gets sorted. A bunch of teams have lost a bunch of players and only have a handful under contract still. Like as of right now, the Bruins and Islanders only have 5 players apiece signed still. ![]() |

Did anyone catch the logistics of the "Team Salary Cap"? My initial impression is it seems stupid to have a team cap if it will still fuck over the small market teams.
Can't wait for hockey to be back. I'm pissed off, but I still miss it. I hope any new rules they adopt increase the flow of the game. Being a Sens fan it will definitely help our chances of finally knocking out those dreaded Leafs. |

It sounds like it will all be done within a matter of days now. As somebody from Minnesota I can't be more happy.
Not only are Wild games cooler then Twins and Wolves games, but honestly this winter college basketball got a little old. I mean I love college ball, but with hockey gone it was on almost every night. I would have liked to see some hockey in there. |
