Me too PG, me too.  :-\

have you been watching the "Hungry For Hockey" stuff on CSN? Got to see game 6 of the Flyers/Tampa series last year that was won in OT by Gagne and then yesterday was the 5 OT game vs Pittsburgh...and a couple of weeks ago the clinching game vs. the Laffs from last year.

I saw on Sportscenter during lunch that the Phantoms have won 17 straight.  Pretty impressive.

The fans down here in NC are pretty pumped that the 'Canes are still undefeated this year.

Glimmer of hope for a shortened season?

With Philly's luck, we'll finally win something and it will be with an asterisk.  ::)

NHLPA offered the following today:

-- immediate 24% rollback on all salaries (saves $270M in the 1st year, $528M over 3 years), plus current free agents would be adjusted to the new salary structure (i.e. no $8M-$10M/yr contracts this year)

-- luxury tax system:

20 cents for every dollar between $45M-$50M in the first year, increasing to .25 and .30
50 cents for every dollar between $50M-$60M in the first year, increasing to .55 and .60
60 cents for every dollar over $60M in the first year, increasing to .65 and .70

-- new arbitration system similar to baseball (player wants X, team wants Y, arbitrator decides)

-- draft picks now capped at $850K bonuses for initial contract

-- revenue sharing to bring the lower 15 teams within 30% of the top 15

Roenick was on SC today, in the tease he said "This Jeremy Roenick, and I'm goin tell you why there won't be an NHL season...."  :P
Zero hour, Michael. It's the end of the line. I'm the firstborn. I'm sick of playing second fiddle. I'm always third in line for everything. I'm tired of finishing fourth. Being the fifth wheel. There are six things I'm mad about, and I'm taking over.
