NHL 2012 Off-Season Thread

**Emperor Smeat** · 09-15-2012, 12:00 AM

In about an hour from now, the NHL will officially start its lockout since the first attempt by the players to have it broken in the courts failed.

The NHLPA wanted an extension to prevent the deadline from occurring while the courts said no for now but will officially considering hearing the case at a later date.

The owners are happy it failed but at the same time are pissed since they didn't plan on the players finding an actual Canadian law that could end the lockout quickly before the owners are able to capitalize on a desperate union for more concessions.
