Was the sarcastic remark really necessary?

I would say so... I was almost beaten up in Florida for asking a bartender in a sports bar to put one of his thirty TV's on hockey once.

Exactly.

From that link:

"Suomessa pelaavat NHL-pelaajat saivat tiedon työsulun päättymisestä lauantaina.

"Minulla on sellainen tieto, että sopimus on jo tehty", HPK:n Riku Hahl sanoi.

Myös Tapparan Ville Nieminen oli saanut tiedon työsulun päättymisestä.

"On sen niin varmaa, että olen sopinut palaavani takaisin ensi tiistaina", Nieminen vahvisti."

Translation:

NHL players playing in Finland have received confirmation on the end of the lock-out. HPK's Riku Hahl: I have information that the deal is already done.

Tappara's Ville Nieminen has also received information that the lock-out is over. "It's certain enough that I've made arrangements to return to NA next Tuesday"
