It sounds like a broken refrain at this point, but what else is there to say? The NHL season — its beginning, at least — is in serious jeopardy with the current collective bargaining agreement set to expire in just 10 days.

NHL analyst Andy Brickley sat down with Jamison Coyle and NESN Daily to talk about what the current impasse — where neither side seems to have much to say to the other — means for the future of the season. Spoiler alert: it isn't good.

Nonetheless, Brickley describes the freeze as "part of the process," so check out the video to learn a thing or two about labor negotations where millions of dollars are at stake.
