A newly reached tentative Collective Bargaining Agreement between the ECHL and the Professional Hockey Players’ Association has brought an end to a strike that postponed several minor league hockey games. Teams and fans across the league can now look forward to the resumption of regular play.

WNBA Commissioner Cathy Engelbert remains hopeful that the league and players’ union will finalize a new collective bargaining agreement, even if negotiations extend beyond the October deadline. Her optimism suggests a collaborative effort towards securing the league’s future.
