The owners don’t care if there is a season . They know that the last time a season was cancelled , they destroyed the union .and got everything they wanted . The players don’t care . They are playing in Europe , and getting payed . What does that mean . No season

TALK ABOUT STATING THE OBVIOUS …

This nincompoop of a professor should go back to professing whatever the hell it is he professes ! Edward the Confessor could have told us more ! He says that … “I still have this fundamental, analytical belief that we could hear them just reach an agreement any day”. You do eh Einstein ? Well thank God you’re gratuitously sharing that bit of “fundamental & analytical” brilliance with us ! What a joke … 90% of the bloggers here post more intelligent comments than this clown !

Professors should stick to professing. Hockey players can stick to jockeying. (b)Owners will stick to (b)owning! Go hockeyists!

This could have a little something to do with why the players have been unwilling to make a new offer. They know a deal might be close, and they are afraid of giving up more then they would have to… so they are instead hoping the owners make a new offers so they can see where things stand.

Thats why often times to final part of negotiations are the hardest. No one wants to give up any more then they absolutely have to…. but you never know exactlly what the other sides magic number is. Thus everyone is afraid to make an offer at that point.
