Yep. In 2007, the Rangers sued the league citing Antitrust laws, stating that the "cookie cutter" design eliminates competition between the different teams (since no team can have features or designs that another team wouldn't have). http://paidcontent.org/tech/new-york-rangers-cablevision-sue-nhl-opposing-its-website-control-by-the-le/

Came across a copy of a New York Times story from 1993, when Bettman was named as Commish... Oops. Oh well, 6 out of 8 aint bad, right? And... Oops again. That certainly worked out well, didn't it?

So, pretty much the exact same thing that happened yesterday. Because that was so productive... I suppose that if a deal is going to get hammered out, it will likely begin with small group meetings like this. I'm not optimistic, but at least the sides are still scheduling meetings with each other. I just wish they wouldn't wait 5 days between meetings like they have been recently...

I think we're headed to a lockout. A collection of quotes from Twitter after today's meetings wrapped up... The Forth Period Renaud P Lavoie And Bettman's worst line of all... Mark Masters To which George Malik has a great response... IMO, it's quotes like the above mentioned that are leading to the NHLPA winning the PR war this time. Bettman, and the NHL by extension, are coming off as iron-clad "My way or the highway" types, while Fehr and the PA are sounding very sensible. As evidenced by... Mark Masters (again)

Interesting that Bettman and Daly had a private meeting with the Fehr brothers. That seems much more like alot of the backdoor meetings that were happening as we closed in on a deal last go-round...

For laughs, Wings & Kings twitter-war, *merged*
Jedi replied to HadThomasVokounOnFortSt's topic in General
The Wings feed hit the nail on the head. Although they're often funny, the Kings social media team really has been yapping like an attention starved puppy for awhile now. It's great that they won the Stanley Cup. Now instead of having none, they have the same number of cups as Dallas, Calgary, Anaheim, Carolina and Tampa Bay. That's some elite company there... That only works when San Jose and Winnipeg get in a twitter war... -

Fehr had a pretty good followup response, as per Chris Johnston from The Hockey News...

A few quotes from Bettman's response, from THN's "The Stats Guy"... Not surprising, as I don't think anyone expected the League to accept the PA's first proposal any more than the PA would accept the League's first offer. That said, sure seems like Bettman's trying to angle towards the player's being the ones dragging their feet. Next meeting is set for one week from today.

No truth to the rumor that Bettman finished that sentance with "...but it will only take us an hour or two to reject it".
