NHL season has 10-day window

NHL

Season on the line

As soon as Monday, the NHLPA is expected to present a counter-offer to the NHL's 300-page amended proposal, sent Thursday and aimed at ending the lockout to salvage a 48-game schedule, the minimum for a legitimate season, according to commissioner Gary Bettman. For that to happen, a deal on virtually all of the issues would need to be reached in about 10 days, allowing for training camp and a season beginning Jan. 19. If there is no deal by then, the season likely will be wiped out.
