Good morning.
It is Thursday, March 10, and the lockout continues.
It what has to qualify as good news, however, the league and the players have reportedly agreed on the “International Draft” issue which derailed talks last night, and resulted in the league announcing another week’s worth of games were...canceled? Postponed? In limbo? We shall see...
In any case, reportedly, the two sides have agreed that they agree to negotiate on the international draft until July 25, and if there is not agreement by then, there will be no international draft, and draft compensation will remain for free agents.
