sven233 Posted February 18, 2005 Posted February 18, 2005 Hey everyone. I just thought that with these semi-developments in the CBA, we needed a place to go to post them. Believe me, I am as sick and tired as everyone that this thing will just not roll over and die, but we all know this could be historic (and laughable). Ha....too late for that. I just hope that we don't have to post a whole lot here. I really just wish they wouldn't say anything unless it would just be to announce the start date of the season. But, with that said, they are not just going to call a Press Conferance without there being news. So please, report only true news and reports with the correct source so that the people who want to follow this maybe-kindof-sorta-news can get only legitamate information. Thanks!

buffalomike Posted February 18, 2005 Posted February 18, 2005 From Detroit radio WDFN ....Kevin Allen (USA Today hockey writer) USA Today hockey guy says there are talks. Says three of the the 7 union members on the executive committe are ready to go to owners with a new offer. The guy on the fence is Ottawa Senator Daniel Alfredsson. No one is sure where he stands. Lots of pressure on him. If he agrees, Goodenow and the union will present an offer to Bettman. Allen isn't sure exactly what the deal is. Believes it will have to be down to atleast $45M with a dollar for dollar luxury tax at a lower threshold. Allen says he's not sure if the owners will accept it. Some want it for sure, he says. But others may be intent on busting the union and getting a $35 million cap next season.

sfladave Posted February 18, 2005 Posted February 18, 2005 So please, report only true news and reports with the correct source so that the people who want to follow this maybe-kindof-sorta-news can get only legitamate information. Thanks! 245294[/snapback] Well that statement worked out well for you. I would suggest that you NEVER put this sentance into anything you post in the future. It is like an open invitation to crash the party.
Fezmid Posted February 19, 2005 Posted February 19, 2005 I don't know how believable this is, but this guy thinks that, if the season isn't saved, the Sabres, Senators, Panthers, Thrashers and Blue Jackers will all be contracted before next season (even if the league uses scabs next year) Say it aint so EDIT: I guess technically this thread is supposed to only be for "real" news, not speculation. Sorry. CW

So perhaps anything is possible.
silvermike Posted February 19, 2005 Posted February 19, 2005 Fezmid and I are no longer friends! Good one.
drnykterstein Posted February 19, 2005 Posted February 19, 2005 Goodenow has been fired and replaced. Game on! 245302[/snapback] That guy has like 6 million views on his website. What in the world? Where's the pic of him in the leafs jersey, that would be funny to post.
