ESPN is reporting that the National Hockey League canceled two weeks' worth of regular-season games Thursday as the lockout dragged into its 18th day with no new labor talks scheduled.
Unable to work out how to split $3 billion in hockey-related revenues with the Players' Association, the NHL wiped out games from Oct. 11 through Oct. 24 -- beginning with four next Thursday, which would have been the league's opening night.
Although there have been negotiations between the league and players in recent days the two sides haven't gotten any closer to a deal on core economic issues.
