Speculation: So will there be a season?

[Antaris]

Dont

Even

Care

Anymore.


Frankly, they handled this so stupendously bad that it's hard to give a slightest crap at this point. They're just bickering like little children about freaking details. I can't for the life of me understand this level of stubbornness and ignorance. And what really grinds my gear is the players little PR campaign about them being the "good guys and "just wanting to play the game"

Bull they're acting like a bunch of primmadonnas and are just as much as fault.


Yes im pissed and I refuse to be rational about it.

The players lose an insane amount of money by not playing an entire season.

That said, I am pretty confident there will not be hockey this season.

I voted No. And i'm pretty confident with that, there is now to short of a window of opportunity to get way to much done. If another deal is reached it won't be until the spring or summer. In the meantime I'm sticking to the ECHL for my hockey fix, Plus I just got a bunch of hockey pads for christmas to join my own local beginners league!

I don't think they'll have a season. The monopolist infant owners will let their lawyers stomp their collective feet in court, and the lemming players will continue to follow Fehr off of the cliff of financial suicide.

Still the stongly one-sided poll is promising in the sense that the public is usually wrong when speculating about sports.
