They'd have to recertify and vote as well as the CBA would need to be approved by the courts I believe. I think the owners would have to end the lockout in anticipation of such actions though since they'd take some time. That's why mid-July is the drop date for starting the season on time. A bunch of stuff has to happen to take an agreed upon CBA and implement it officially. Joe can probably be more precise on this.
