Harry Chappas Posted December 21, 2012 Share Posted December 21, 2012 They really need to condense teams or do something real to fix this thing. When you lose two season in a rather short period of time something major is broken. This isn't a percentage point difference in revenue sharing.

The other things are the issues that I think they need to resolve. I think the NHL is getting themselves into a deeper hole now that is not going to go away when the lockout is settled. Settling on the split may answer the problems that existed in August but I think the revenue for the NHL is going to tank moving forward. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

southsider2k5 Posted December 28, 2012 Author Share Posted December 28, 2012 Pierre LeBrun @Real_ESPNLeBrun An NHL player says the NHL made a new offer to the NHLPA on Thursday, one which moved on contract term limits, buyouts and variance... Darren Dreger @DarrenDreger Among the changes in the new proposal, the NHL adjusted its max contract length from 5 to 6 yrs. Boosted the variance from 5% to 10%.

IlliniKrush Posted December 28, 2012 Share Posted December 28, 2012 Decent step for the NHL, now we have to see how the union responds. They aren't THAT far away from each other...it'd be completely ridiculous if they can't get an agreement done. But we've come to expect ridiculousness.

The Critic Posted January 1, 2013 Share Posted January 1, 2013 I've seen postings on message boards saying NBC has sent notices to advertisers that the NHL will return on 1/19. Not sold on this, since I don't trust either side, but if they are indeed sending word to advertisers, this would indicate something is imminent. In maybe-related news, the ever-wacky Ilya Bryzgalov has left his KHL team: http://www.philly.com/philly/blogs/frequen...-is-ending.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
southsider2k5 Posted January 2, 2013 Author Share Posted January 2, 2013 John Shannon @JSportsnet NHL inches closer to a deal with PA.Still some major disagreements between the sides on core issues.Deal is still a work in progress. Renaud Lavoie @RenLavoieRDS But the NHLPA agreed (with some conditions) that the next CBA will be 10 years and not 8 like they previously asked.

southsider2k5 Posted January 3, 2013 Author Share Posted January 3, 2013 Sounds like each team will get two buyouts for 2013-14 Renaud Lavoie @RenLavoieRDS Nothing is done in cba until everything is done, but NHLPA agreed that buyouts before 2013-14 season, will count against players share.
