"Multiple sources confirmed to the Daily News on Friday that Snider, once seen as a supporter of the Bettman's push to rein in the players' share of revenue, has soured on the process after it became apparent that a deal would not be brokered in time for a Dec. 1 puck drop.
Put simply: Snider and the rest of the NHL's owners were promised a big win by Bettman, with player concessions on revenue division and contracting rights. The best they'll get now is a small win in revenue split - coupled with a demoralized fan base and all-important corporate sponsors that are ready to quit.
A source familiar with Snider's thinking characterized it as: "If this is the deal we are going to get, what's the point of dragging this out?"
It wouldn't be surprising for the NHLPA to wait a bit longer before making a move. If the owners do decide to change their approach in negotiations, the players would be wise to sit back and see if the league makes more concessions.

NHL Lockout
It seems more likely than not that regular-season games will be canceled before the league and the players' association even get back to the negotiating table.The sides broke off talks Tuesday after just two hours, and it was hard to find optimism anywhere that the season would avoid a major disruption -- just seven years after a full season was lost to a lockout.The season is slated to open on Oct. 11. But with training camps on hold and all preseason games already canceled, it is hard to imagine the NHL can stick to that schedule if a deal with the players' association isn't reached in the next day or two. with the deadline coming up fast this seems nearly impossible.When the sides got together on Tuesday, for the fourth time in five days, they again focused their talks on secondary issues and not the core economics that have the NHL and the union at odds. http://blogs.courierpostonline.com/flyers/
