NHL unmoved by players’ proposal

It looked as though we would see some traction Wednesday in the NHL contract talks, with strong indications by late morning that the lockout could be coming to a close. The Players Association put an offer on the table that in significant portions mirrored what NHL owners offered them Oct. 16.

But shortly after 3 p.m. it was clear, based on comments by union leader Donald Fehr after talks broke off for the day, that the league remained unimpressed by the players’ offer.

Comments

The league is consistent, anyway.

So the NHL billionaire owner turned down the same offer they had made to the players back in October?

A bunch of plutocrat maggots!  They are destroying the sport.
