Alright so there is a 'lockout' let's say. Does this mean there is a lockout until terms are agreed on?

For instance what would happen if an agreement was made one month into the season?

More importantly what exactly guarantees football is played next year? What if there is still no deal? Is it just an assumption by next year a deal will be made, and it is assumed it will be before the season?

Are these guys just taking a year off for negotiations?

I am just trying to figure out how much football, exactly, is all this bickering potentially going to cost me?

Yes

For instance what would happen if an agreement was made one month into the season?

Then they would schedule games as quickly as possible and likley play a shortened season

More importantly what exactly guarantees football is played next year? What if there is still no deal? Is it just an assumption by next year a deal will be made, and it is assumed it will be before the season?

The 1 year threshold is important because the owners get paid by the TV deal for the next season whether there is football or not (although they have to pay it back) It would be extremely unlikely for a lockout to go more than a year

Are these guys just taking a year off for negotiations?

Nobody knows. my opinion is that we will not lose any football

      25-26 NHL Regular Season Thread

      Great article on all the Lil Canes attending their debutantes ball. Walt with a great breakdown of all the rookies, as always, and I'm a huge fan of his team coverage, he is truly a treasure, but as a fan of mixed metaphors and superfluous language which some might ignorantly refer to as a "run-on sentence" I never really understood what that mean or where to put the comma after a quote in the middle of a sentence, but holy poo Walt, this is a gem, "While there's a long road left in front of them left to determine whether or not they'll have that same success on the blue line again, the beginning stretch of the journey has been thrown a wrench, and the story on defense has been the emergence of up-and-comers forced into becoming lineup regulars." , bravo, take a bow, sir!

      When the broadcast showed the two benches side by side during the last TV timeout, it was pretty obvious the whole operation is a shitshow. If I was the owner, I would play that clip, with commentary, on the jumbotron at MSG as I fired the coach, GM, President, the whole lot. Bring in your AHL leadership team, wholesale, to finish out the season and start from scratch next year.  Can't fire all the players and fold the season. But, hopefully decapitating the zombie will light a fire under the body and burn out the cancer of the roster. (It makes sense if you don't think about it...) There are obviously issues on the roster. But, you can't have the entire coaching staff completely tuned out with 5 minutes left in a 2 goal game this early in the season. And you can't trust the people that hired them to hire the next staff. If you trust your AHL GM/Scouts, let them run the deadline firesale.   ...     Please don't let the owner read any of this. Because, this poo is hilarous!
