The NHLPA has said that Marty St. Louis, Rick DiPietro, Ron Hainsey, Jamal Mayers and Chris Campoli are going to be in the meeting where the players provide their counter proposal to the owners.

Ian Mendes of Sportsnet tweets “Absolute chaos with people walking around Manhattan today. Next round of CBA talks should take place at Mardi Gras in New Orleans.”
