NJDevs4978 Posted February 19, 2005 Share Posted February 19, 2005 Besides, if the NHLPA 'vehemently' denited it it could be Goodenow denying it and one of the posts above said he might have nothing to do with negotiations anymore? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Weekes Head Posted February 19, 2005 Share Posted February 19, 2005 Stan: "What I hear is that the deal is done enough to hold a press conference tomorrow in New York...the union is denying it...but I'm waiting for some sort of announcement on my email...I would be astonished, there is no way they can not play the season now."

Weekes Head Posted February 19, 2005 Share Posted February 19, 2005 Stan: We WILL have a season. Howie: I can't imagine that they're going to New York to confirm the cancellation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smelly Posted February 19, 2005 Share Posted February 19, 2005 28 game season will start on March 3 per Fischler. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sammyk Posted February 19, 2005 Share Posted February 19, 2005 So, Mario and Gretzky involved...what did they say to the players? "None of you are as good as us and deserve millions, so shut up and take what you can get! ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zamode Posted February 19, 2005 Share Posted February 19, 2005 How does Mario really play into this, being player and owner? Which booty is he kissing? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
section 110 Posted February 19, 2005 Share Posted February 19, 2005 Mario is an owner now - not even a member of the PA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LizDevil30 Posted February 19, 2005 Share Posted February 19, 2005 (edited) Maybe what it says to the players is that Mario and Wayne know the real deal because they've been on both sides. There comes a time you have to trust someone. Edited February 19, 2005 by LizDevil30 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NJDevs4978 Posted February 19, 2005 Share Posted February 19, 2005 I DO wonder where the hell Mario and Gretzky were before this became life and death, but they do have the stature to bridge the gap between players and owners. I'm sure they, like everyone else realizes that hey, you guys (the players) aren't getting a better deal nine months from now, let's do this.
