Tonight should have been the Calgary Flames first preseason games before the hockey season began on October 11th. As it stands, the season won't start on time due to the current lack of collective bargaining agreement required between the players union and the league/team owners. Deadspin has a useful article on the reasons for the dispute for those not familiar with the situation.
Hopefully, they get things sorted out such that the season starts at American thanksgiving, or Christmas or something, since otherwise it'll rob me of the chance of me taking all my colleagues' money in the work hockey pool....
