ESPN's Marc Stein reports that a proposed 12-player, three-team deal that got so much attention Wednesday is "pretty much dead", but could be revived. New Jersey, Dallas and Portland all had concerns, he reports, and each fears that unless something happens soon, it could affect team morale. Still, word is that talks are indeed heating up but Rod Thorn is taking a hard line on getting top-flight talent in return.
