NHL Lockout Thread

Do Not Sell My Personal Information
Winter Classic and All-Star Game set to be cancelled on Monday. Shame.
 
Of course. Players were offered a 50/50 split. They came back with offers not even close to that. Games being cancelled left and right now.
 
I feel for people that enjoy hockey as a sport but speaking for myself I'm not going to miss watching hockey highlights splitting time with the NFL/NBA. Or top plays, a guy fakes out a goalie over a monster Blake Griffin dunk.

On our "sportscenter" they are showing a TON of KHL, and OHL/WHL highlights. It's annoying as hell really. NHL highlights are bad enough, but now we get to see some no name guys doing average things. Yay Canada.
 
Anyone on here have the funds of starting a new league?
 
Honestly, I would rather watch Hockey than the NBA. The Cavs are probably my 3rd team.
 
If you think David Stern is a shitty commissioner...

I get what you're implying, and you're wrong. Take a look at Gary's last press conference on the 6th. He just ranted for 40 minutes and DEMOLISHED every single argument the NHLPA had.
 
You'd think for a sport not being highly regarded in the first place, they'd get a deal done.
 
Meeting today at noon. This could be it folks.
 
To me hockey is a sixth-rate sport ranking somewhere between jai alai and Amish rake fights. I couldn't care less about a lockout, a lost season, or a folded league.

Cool.
 
Deal is done. Players just have to agree.
