NHL LOCKOUT

-

DAY 53

Did they talk? They met for 51⁄ hours in New York and plan to

2 meet again today.

What’s going on? The agenda included the NHL’s proposal to “make whole” players’ salaries while cutting their share of hockeyrela­ted revenue, but the early part of talks dealt with revenue sharing among teams. The NHL Players’ Associatio­n’s approach has been to increase revenue sharing to help financiall­y stressed teams.

What we missed: Three games, including Pittsburgh Penguins at Toronto Maple Leafs. Evgeni Malkin and Sidney Crosby would be facing the second-worst defensive team of 2011-12.

Real hockey: Philadelph­ia Flyers winger Max Talbot signed with Ilves Tampere in Finland.
