Surely nobody thought we were dropping this.
Earlier this week, the Penguins came to the table for the first round of negotiations in some time. A representative from Pittsburgh United characterized this as a significant and necessary occurrence, however, no further details could be made available, and there are no further negotiating sessions currently scheduled.
The four keys to victory are still in effect, however, our previous characterizations of most of these keys are now significantly outdated. Collapse, revise, and adjust the time-frame according to the new paradigm and new, enlightened terms of engagement.
