Yesterday, NHL players and management reached a tentative framework of an agreement to end a 113-day lockout. 

The National Hockey League Players' Association (NHLPA) announced there are still many details that need to be ironed out before the final contract is ratified. 

Don Fehr, executive director of the NHLPA, said in the press conference:

We'll get back to what we used to call business as usual just as fast as we can.

On Twitter, many players reacted to the good news. Matt Beleskey of the Anaheim Ducks tweeted:

Feel like I'm 6 years old again , can't sleep to excited to get back out there! #boysareback #GameOn
