Did you hear...

the screeching from the train coming to a stop?  That could have been the train taking us to "We'll have a season ville."  We might end up with a detour to "Another season without hockey ville." 

The owners offered a bump up in their make whole provision, from $211 million to $300 million.  Of that $300 million, $50 million would go into a players pension fund.  The problem is that in order to get that, the players must agreed to a 10 year CBA with an opt out at 8 years. 

Sounds kind of like the U.S. Congress and how bills get passed (or not passed).  Here's a spoonful of sugar to take with that bitter pill we just gave you to swallow. 

On the bright side, pitchers and catchers start reporting in about 3 months.
