NHL Lockout

Ok im pissed off at The NHL. They can't solve anything on their own they had like 20 meetings and all of them didn't even have anything close to solving the problem. get off your asses and phone each other cause ur not getting anywhere's if you don't talk.

If it was up to me i would have done this long ago:

Discuss all you want until u solve the problem but let the players play the season. but don't have playoffs. That's What Major league Baseball did and look at the league now the fan base is immense. That's what i would have done

Yes, we are dying without hockey. I dunno. It's one of the many wonders of the world.

if anything professional sportsmen and women (more so men) should take massive pay cuts.

no one deserves near that much money to play a fucking game. elite sportsmen and women need to learn to get over themselves (for the most part, i guess some aren't bad)

I agree with you masterswords. Though they wouldnt have problems if the players didnt get so much bloody money. They should be all on the same basic wage with bonus if they score a goal say.

i agree with u there man. Jagr for instance makes 10 million per year and he's asking for more. Fuck man u got enough as it is how bout u lower ur salary for a fucking change.

4 YEARS AGO the average salary was 0.8 million wich that is acceptable but now the average salary is 1.8 million that's way too much if u ask me.

I agree with what u said. Say u score a goal for ever goal u score would be about 10000$ each but the problem with that is the players would get greedy and they would hog the puck all the time and they wouldn't get any good games on tv anymore.

Gary Bettman and Bob Goodenow can show there offers both up there asses[/quote]

I'm Canadian. And honestly, the disappearance of hockey has not impeded me in any way. Sure, when it's there, you watch it, you might even like it. But then it's gone, and it's like "What the fuck, I don't give a shit." The players are all overpaid losers. I mean, they want 13 mil a year for hitting a little round thing with a stick? That's sick. I don't think I'm going to watch NHL again after that, even if they do start playing again. And as I mentioned before, 'I. Am. Canadian." (That's a beer ad by the way...) Smile
