Well, I guess we know the guys at NW in Vancouver are reading Eklund tonight
Deadline? Well, I suppose it's possible, but c'mon, almost at the finish line and what do you think is going on?...Bettman tells the PA...if we're not done by noon tomorrow, I'm cancelling the 05-06 season? LMFAO. Obviously, the goal was to be finished by noon Monday so Bettman could go to the executive committee meeting on Monday afternoon and say, we're done, but if he can't say we're done, he can say we're almost done and here's the update. The meeting is taking place for sure. My sense is he won't have his fully executed and legally binding (pending ratification of course) CBA in hand, but it's close, as in later Monday or Tuesday or Wednesday, and we'll probably know how much closer by the time they meet tomorrow.
You guys kill me, go to bed...it's not time yet. At least one more sleep, and maybe two or three, until Santa, I mean, CBA arrives.
Good night.
