A shortened NHL season would be awesome! hell, any hockey is awesome. A shortened season would be good since every game means so much
Hell yea hockey .
Anything would be good now .
I think this lockout is really going to hurt hockey in the south though.
We gots us a real short tenshun span round here.
I sure hope this is actually a sign hockey is coming back...

Thats to be expected, its the American way: deny everything.
still hope though, this black ops negotioation still ongoing.
If they dont break the lockout soon I'm afraid we might lose our team.
I heard either your owner/GM interviewed and it sounds like they are quite commited to hanging out until they can get cost certainty.Originally posted by Newk

I'm definetely not holding my breath. I mean sure I'd love to have my Saturday nights back to the way they should be, but but the people who count are way too far away from being on the same page.Originally posted by sin

i say fold every american team and bring the sport back to canada. that's the way to do it. get rid of the american egos and american dollars, and all of the sudden it's a good sport again.
^ and all of a sudden the league goes into an even worse state. With what little tv contracts the league has severing the american ones would only ultimately kill the sport. I know you were probably joking but just some food for thought

gongSHOW, you answered that perfectly. Lets face it, we need the exposure, marketing, and coverage from the States. They don't even call it our official sport anymore.Originally posted by gongSHOW

fuck em alll. have you been watching the swedish elite league? thats far better hockey on par than i saw the oilers or calgary play. It really suprised me how exciting the game is over there. Not to mention junior a? calgary has 2 of its very own ajhl teams (my bro and cuzzzzin are on the canucks) which is also pretty good hockey. If the season returns, i certainly wont be reterning to my team of choice just so quick. the sport should be based around the fans, and as the owners AND players have shown, they really dont think it is, each believing they are the most important cog in the wheel...
the only thing that im hoping to get out of this is that a bunch of those stupid expansion teams go bankrupt and leave, then next years hockey will be alot better. too many damn teams out there and for the most part they suck
get rid of
blue jackets
thrashers
hurricanes
nashville
wild
less teams = better hockey.

Getting rid of those teams is a sure way to put scoring down even more.
because with less teams the teams that stay will have better players because they arnt scattered across as many teams, so the teams will be better to watch. maybe its just my opinion but i dont like watching the new teams play.Originally posted by bspot
