NHL players and owners are playing a silly game of chicken these days, leading to an impasse in negotiations over the upcoming hockey season and putting a Jan. 1 start in jeopardy. Free Press sports editor Steve Lyons and sports columnist Mike McIntyre discuss why both sides stand to lose if they can’t work out their differences soon. They also talk about the intriguing hiring of Dave Lowry to be the new assistant coach with the Winnipeg Jets, Manitoba golfer Aaron Cockerill making waves while playing overseas on the European Tour, and Mike’s decision to tackle some Christmas baking. Better keep the fire department on standby.
