Will there be an NHL season?

Well we are now two days away from the deadline to get a deal done that will give the NHL a full 82 game season and it seems that both sides are no closer now than they were a few months ago. Just recently the NHL owners made a propoasal to the NHLPA that would split all NHL related revenues 50/50 between the owners and playes. This was probably the best deal we have heard in a while. Its what it should be. Neither one should make more than the other. We all thought it was a done deal. We thought the NHLPA has to except this. Well guess again as the NHLPA came back with 3 counter proposals. The biggest concern with the players is that they want their current contracts to be honored. The NHL owners rejected all three proposals and all talks have stopped. Gary Bettman has cancled all games scheduled till November 1st. If a deal is not done by this Friday then their will either be a shortened season or no season at all and by the looks of how things are progressing now, im not counting on there being any season at all. This has been very disappointing. Both sides are not willing to budge and until someone is, there will be no negotiations.
