The NHL locked out its players at midnight Saturday, becoming the third major sports league to impose a work stoppage in the last 18 months. The action also marks the fourth shutdown for the NHL since 1992, including a year-long dispute that forced the cancellation of the entire 2004-05 season when the league held out for a salary cap. The deal which ended that dispute expired at midnight, and Commissioner Gary Bettman followed through on his longstanding pledge to lock out the players with no new agreement in place.

TORONTO (AP) The NHL and NHL Players' Association are set to meet for the first time in nearly two weeks, but a discussion about a new collective bargaining agreement isn't on the agenda.

Instead, the sides will discuss the accounting for last season's hockey-related revenue when they sit down together Monday morning in Toronto.

It's the first time they've met since Sept. 12, when each side tabled a proposal.

The league enacted a lockout when the CBA expired three days later.

The work stoppage has already caused a delay in the start of training camps and prompted the cancellation of September's preseason games.
