The Players' Association met today with a proposal that was immediately shot down. The season is seriously in question as this stalemate continues. There has been very little progress made since the start of this lockout, unless you count outlandish offers and childish name progress, in which case, tons of progress has been made and hockey will start tomorrow.
I can't imagine this has been at all healthy for the Canadian entertainment economy, which has now probably been reduced to documentaries on moose hunting and reality shows that follow the exciting lives of Mounties, which is just the Canadian equivalent of a suburban cop, scouring the streets for hardened cats that ferociously hang out on neighbors' trees, much to the chagrin of grandma. Hockey was really the only thing Canada had going for it, other than the renaming and reselling of American meats in a circular format. Perhaps I should start an Egg McMuffin campaign so Gary Bettman doesn't bankrupt the poor country of Canada.
