I don't see any similar speculation anywhere (not that I looked all too hard ) but Al Morganti and Keith Jones cohost an AM sports talk radio station here in Philly, and they suggested this morning that something is in the works and we can expect the season to start around Dec. 1. Both are known to be jokesters, but they seemed to be genuine.

We can hope....

That would be great, Joel, hope there's something to it.

TORONTO - The NHL has presented a new offer to the players that it hopes will end the lockout and allow for a full 82-game season.

League commissioner Gary Bettman says the long-term deal will split revenues with players 50-50 across the board and takes steps to guarantee the players will get full value from their existing deals.

Bettman says under the deal the season would start Nov. 2 and each team would have one additional game every five weeks in order to get a full season in.

Bettman says the proposal is now in the hands of the NHL Players' Association. The union has requested time to look the proposal over.

The current lockout is just over a month old.

The season was to start Oct. 11, but the two sides were not able to come to an agreement before then and the first 82 games of the schedule were scrapped.

This is a step in the right direction. A few months ago, Lou Nanne, a very well connected former player said that this is what it would take to make a deal. I hope he is right.

Lets wait and see what real offer is? I'm sorry I don't believe a thing the owner say they could be just blowing smoke?

But I do think they got a wake up call with so many star players playing overseas for decent money.

There are other sticking points...One year longer to wait for free agency, revenue sharing disagreements...but this is a very good starting point.

From what I have read about this offer, some of the problem with it is that the new CBA could affect some current contracts. So, they need to hammer that out, but I'm optimistic.

the last "lost" season brought (in canada anyhoo) poker into the limelight on tv...and its never gone away...what athletes those guys are...i was kind of hoping for a prolonged strike/lockout to see what other lame stuff the sports media companies can come up with.

i want hockey so bad

The players are dug in and not going to get bent over again.
The offer the owners made was to make Donald Fehr look bad,not going to happen.
My guess no hockey until late December,if it happens at all?
