It's so close you can hear the sound of steel on ice. The Winnipeg Sun reports there's a deal on the table to settle the lockout but the article left me confused. On the one hand, there seems to be an acceptance by the NHLPA that the deal has to contain some sort of cost certainty. On the other hand, it says the NHLPA once again says it will not accept a cap.
I guess it doesn't matter what it's called as long as it stops the clubs from bleeding permanently. Today should be another interesting day.
