After nearly four months of labor negotiations and no hockey, a new collective bargaining agreement has been tentatively reached.
"We have reached an agreement of a framework of a new CBA," Gary Bettman said early Sunday morning.
"Any process like this is difficult, it can be long," Donald Fehr echoed. "[But] we have the framework of a deal."
After a 16-hour-long negotiation session that started early Saturday ended around 5 a.m. ET came the news we have all been waiting 113 days for; there is a deal -- tentatively -- in place and hockey is coming back.
