the NHL is coming back

[wal66]

Well,..........................is it or ain't it coming back?

 

[Matty]

The union and owners still need to vote, but yeah, it's coming back.

Jan 19 the puck drops from what I hear.

Cant wait to start watching Dougie Hamilton and see if he is as advertised.

Thank you Brian Burke.

 

[reno cool]

did players hold their ground?

 

[Matty]

Not really reno. They gave up 7% of overall hockey revenues, among other things. That's hugh.

The public's reaction is so fokken annoying. They're treating the players as if they were from the same cloth as the owners. Vast majority of these players come from nothing. Fuck off.

Are they gonna have a season? Live a 5 min walk away from Nationwide Arena (Bluejackets) so a NHL season would be welcome.

 

[Matty]

48-game season, looks like.

According to The Canadian Press and tsn.ca, teams will play two division rivals five times each (10 games), two division rivals four times each (eight games) and the remaining 10 teams in their conference three times each (30 games).

As expected, there will be no interconference games.

[Blitty]

Yes. The schedule is out.

 

[Matty]

Didn't see any hockey on TV last night. I don't think it's coming back.

SoV please confirm.

 

[PuckOff]

Yes. The schedule is out.

The schedule is not out you Dolt!!!

"The NHL is targeting a 48-game season beginning Jan. 19, which leaves no time for teams to squeeze in any exhibition games. The schedule is expected to be released in the coming days."

NHL players haven't even ratified the new CBA yet.

 

[FairWarning]

Chicago to spoil the LA Kings celebration next Saturday.

There are have been scheduled games announced, you hoser.

That doesn't mean that "The schedule is out." I did hear that the Leafs may start the season in Montreal next Saturday night, but the reg 48 season schedule has not been released.
