hockeyville88 Posted January 6, 2013 Share Posted January 6, 2013 Finally! I'm happy to have hockey back. But this whole process has exposed the fact that the NHL is a business - when people say "we do this for the love of the game", that's not entirely true. Yes, the players love the game, but they are far far far away from the concept of "doing it for the love and not the money." Either way, a deal got done and that means people who depend on NHL hockey to pay the bills can now breathe easy, and we the fans can get back to our lives. That's what I'm happiest about. Get ready CDC, Luongo trade rumours are revving back up! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

-Vintage Canuck- Posted January 6, 2013 Share Posted January 6, 2013 For those asking for Kesler's status: @FarhanLaljiTSN Re Kesler: there is no time frame for his return. Agent: "Our goal is that he's able to play the next 10 years, not the next 2 months" #tsn @FarhanLaljiTSN More on Kesler - He has recently started stick-handling. "We are working with the club closely on his recovery & we're all on the same page" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Bookie Posted January 6, 2013 Share Posted January 6, 2013 Interesting. January was planned all along, but it looked like they were gonna scrap the whole season for a bit there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WHL rocks Posted January 6, 2013 Share Posted January 6, 2013 His agent said he was "months away" a few weeks ago. That process may be sped up now though. I would imagine he's going to be out until at least the begining or the middle of February. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-Vintage Canuck- Posted January 6, 2013 Share Posted January 6, 2013 Don Cherry: Gary Bettman 'saved the season': Grapes is handing out top marks to the NHL commissioner following Sunday's tentative end to the lockout. Coach's Corner star Don Cherry was among those busy tweeting about the end of the NHL labour stalemate on Sunday morning, and he was quick to credit Gary Bettman for getting a deal done. The Hockey Night In Canada commentator said through his @CoachsCornerCBC Twitter account: "For all you people that are going to watch NHL hockey this year, make no mistake about it, you're watching it because of Gary Bettman. "Bettman was the guy that had to pull the trigger whether this was done or not. He saved the season." The tentative deal was announced jointly by Bettman and NHLPA executive director Donald Fehr shortly after 6 a.m. ET in New York City, following overnight bargaining sessions. On Saturday, Cherry tweeted he felt that a deal was on the way. "I know it's doom and gloom time in the CBA talks. Some stay neutral, others stay silent and others say it's over. I on the other hand say... There will be a season and it will be terrific! I have always been taught to be positive and if you're wrong suffer the slings and arrows." http://www.cbc.ca/sports/hockey/nhl/story/2013/01/06/sp-nhl-lockout-don-cherry-coachs-corner-tweets.html Maybe we should give some credit to Beckenbaugh as well.
