fromm the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette,
A late-night meeting aimed at working out a deal that would keep the Penguins in Pittsburgh began with a stir but ended without an agreement and with very little comment from the participants.
The meeting lasted about 90 minutes before Penguins representatives, including co-owner Ron Burkle and team President Ken Sawyer, left shortly before 11 p.m. without commenting to a large group of reporters waiting outside.
The contingent of state and local officials remained inside the building for more than an hour before Chuck Ardo, a spokesman for Gov. Rendell, emerged to say that more negotiations are planned.
“We hope to be able to work out a deal at some point in the near future,” Mr. Ardo said.
