Easy to agree on terms when your industry is on the verge of collapse.

They're probably still working out the details of how to share the money for the 3 jerseys people bought during the lockdown.

Re: CBA
Amazing how quickly the owners and players can get on the same page when their entire industry is on the verge of collapse.

Re: CBA
I'm surprised teams are holding these training camps in their home cities. I thought they'd want to get players in the bubble as soon as possible.
I got a ranch in downtown Dallas/I buy diamonds by the ton/Chase cuties in my Cadillac/Drill oil wells just for fun/But when it comes to boots, I need a deal/That will fit me right, toe to heel/So I get my boots at Western Warehouse.

Re: CBA
How does ESPN have money for that? They were already underwater from their other stupid rights deals, and that was before Covid. And now Daddy Disney just laid off 30k people.

Re: CBA / Other hockey business stuff

Re: CBA / Other hockey business stuff
This is close to how the season should always run. Get it away from football and basketball

Re: CBA / Other hockey business stuff
According to some media up there, they moved the Stars back to the Central because that division was the weakest one at first place. That's sufficient to raise a "Strength recognition" banner.
