Let's say the WHA is official and plans to begin play in October. In your mind, how long do you believe it will last?
Again, let's pretend as if the league is now official.
Do you think:
- It will fold midway through the season like the CBL?
- It will fold after one season like the XFL?
- Will it last for many years but with attendance dropping year-by-year?
- ect...
I think if there is a lockout, the league will last only for as long as the lockout lasts, then people will jump back to the NHL leaving the WHA to suffer a slow and painful death.
If there is not a lockout, then the WHA will fold in mid season, since 40%(ish) of its players will be returning to the NHL.
