Lets not forget how long these court cases take... Not to mention they could appeal. It could last for years based on that alone.

Sand, why could impasse not be called till sept 15? Does it have to be one year to the day or something?

yeah
according to US labour laws
its in order to not have any anti-trust lawsuits and such

Hockey isn't ever coming back. Curling is going to take over. It's already trying using the absence of hockey to advertise.

no it hasn't. you're just noticing it more now.
in fact, cbc is only allowing those with digital cable to watch the brier and the scotts tournament of hearts. so curling is actually losing the few fans it had.

i think it's done now. and it's a crying shame.

season is going to be cancelled most likely tomorrow. thursday at the latest.
Posted: 2/14/2005, 9:32 pm
wednesday, there's a press confrence at 1 p.m.
Posted: 2/14/2005, 9:34 pm
wait... so why did you ask?
Posted: 2/14/2005, 9:34 pm
So why did you ask the question earlier if you knew there was already a time and date for when they were going to announce it was cancelled?
Posted: 2/14/2005, 9:35 pm
at least i'm not the only one who was wondering.Posted: 2/14/2005, 9:36 pm
It's just a press confrence, they're still supposedly meeting. the original press confrence was slated for tuesday buy got bumped to wednesday after a round of meetings today.
Posted: 2/14/2005, 9:40 pm
They're merely meetings of a formal nature. You know the ones where thank you watches are handed out and people say "let's do this again same time next year"
Posted: 2/14/2005, 9:42 pm
and they would postpone the press confrence by an entire day beacause...

i don't know where you're going with this krammit.
if you still believe the season is going to happen, i feel sorry for you.
