    The Source being the NHLPA's website/messageboard/chatroom in case anyone wasn't aware of that.

    Anyways I found his comments about it interesting. He said, paraphrased (since I can't find a transcript online), that it was a good idea in theory to keep everyone informed and able to talk to each other but in practice all it was was everyone ragging and bashing everyone else all the time.

    I guess the NHLPA is composed of people just like us after all.

    Do you think they have trolls on the message board?

    BigE: Hey, I'm a free agent this year. Awesome.
    Ribero71: You're gonna sign with Toronto for $7
    BigE: Maybe, but not for seven bucks.
    HossaBoss?: Yes you will. All you Ontarians want to play for the Leafs, admit it.
    BigE: I admit to nothing.
    BillyGuerin: You sign for $7 and I will hunt you down and hurt you something good.
    Zidlicky: I've been in America for one season and even I can tell you "hurt you someting good" is terrible english.
    SundinScores: *sigh* Not this crap again.
    GoregousGeorges: Shut it Zids. I will beat you down next time we're on the ice.
    JodyShelly: You couldn't hurt a fly Laraque.

    If the players want to make some of their lost money back, sell subsciptions to their message board.

    I wonder if they have threads in all the different languages players speak?

    You missed the part where someone pretends to be someone else's girlfriend and starts one of those TMI/flame war discussions

    I wonder if they have Mods?

    I wonder if Slats and Peter Bondra are mods over there as well?

    What about SakuK or Buffaloed? ;)
