NHL Labor Talks to Resume
NHL Commissioner Gary Bettman and players’ union chief Bob Goodenow will meet in Toronto on Thursday in an effort to spur stalled labor talks.
The meeting will take place at a location yet to be determined and could extend through Friday, NHL Players’ Assn. spokesman Jonathan Weatherdon said Tuesday. The NHL confirmed the scheduled meeting.
The league’s collective bargaining agreement expires Sept. 15, and negotiations are expected to be stormy and could disrupt next season.
Thursday’s meeting will mark the first formal negotiations since players and owners last met in Toronto on Oct. 1.
