Hi, Guest
I love hockey. I love playing more than I love watching it. I love the game, and I used to love the professionalism displayed on the ice.
Now, it's a bunch of immature babies who obviously never suffered after being off work for more than a year - and who want the fans to come bombing back so they can keep their high salaries regardless of some cuts.
You can't convince me that someone living at the base salary level and making ~$300,000 over 3 years is going to lose their house / car / hooker because they took a 24% pay cut. Same for the multi-million dollar guys.
Suck it up and buy something oh, I don't know... reasonable and realistic????? Morons.
I'll stick to lacing 'em up and cruising around the rink for the Nth time since I started playing. At least the guys I play with play for free, we all maintain the ice, and everyone pretty much gets along and plays for the love of the game.
I guess if nothing else I should be glad that "hockey came back" because now I have another reason to get off my ass and go outside during the winter. Otherwise, I'll be sitting on the couch and doing exactly what the overpaid meatheads and greed-driven team owners want me to do... support such a twisted sense of economy it's not even funny anymore.
