The gap of between $600 million to $650 million between the NHLPA and NHL as represented by the union’s “50/50” offer on Thursday was unaddressed yesterday as the 34th day of the lockout came and went without formal interaction between the parties.

The NHL — which all but stormed out of Thursday’s session in Toronto over what amounts to a difference of approximately 3 percent of hockey-related revenue allocation over the league’s proposed collective bargaining agreement’s six-year term — did, however, announce cancelation of games through Nov. 1.

That was a response to the calendar, not to the players association. The league, which has established an Oct. 25 deadline for reaching agreement on a CBA in order that a full 82-game season can be played beginning Nov. 2, had previously canceled games through Oct. 24.
