Here we go again...

From Rick Westhead of the Toronto Star:

But perception is reality and at least several players came away from the meetings believing they just heard more evidence about why the NHL is not to be trusted.

The union also agreed to form a committee to decide whether to opt out of its labour agreement next summer, two years before it's due to expire.

It all adds up to a smouldering mistrust of the league that's beginning to build among players.

Read Westhead's entire story about labor unrest here.

This is terrific. Nothing like some labor unrest to make the NHL more interesting. Are we in store for another lockout? If so, would anyone comeback to watch the game?

Ballhype: hype it up!
