OT: 2012-13 Lockout Discussion Part XI: The "Please make it stop" edition.

[JustOneB4IDie]

I thought there were a few other teams interested in him?

Calgary was mentioned since JD grew up there it didn't happen.

I think JD would be a excellent Commish by the way.

Looking promising (but still not getting my hopes up):

Pierre LeBrun ‏@Real_ESPNLeBrun
Nothing but positive vibes is what @aaronward_nhl and I are getting from sources here at NHLPA hotel. Still work to be done though...

Pierre LeBrun ‏@Real_ESPNLeBrun
Via email, update from NHL Deputy Commissioner Bill Daly: "Making progress."

Darren Dreger ‏@DarrenDreger
Latest intel from Manhattan-Marathon-Madness...the two sides intend on pushing until no more can be accomplished tonight\this morning.

Daren Millard ‏@darenmillard
Ok after 15 hours I have come around. I now agree this round of negotiations should go to a shootout

Daren Millard ‏@darenmillard
Made contact with those inside the bargaining session. "Still here, still awake, still meeting". All great news in hopes of saving season

Daren Millard ‏@darenmillard
Maybe it's the lack of sleep but you don't meet all night without significant progress. Never more optimistic a deal is within reach.

We will finally get to see what Rick Nash can bring to our team. I hope Hagelin isn't as injured as the rumors are saying in the injury thread.

 

[Kershaw]

10 year cba!!!!

8 yr is an opt out year.

 

[Lua]

The deed is done.

What is the target date for the season's start? I believe the 19th was the rumored start date, any chance we will see hockey before then?

I heard through Asham that a deal will be struck in Jan and it will be a 50 game schedule. From his mouth to your ears.

You guys could have just listened to me instead of staying up all night every night.
