Please vote. Yes or No. I think this strike is a shame to Hockey and for what it stands for. They just want more money and they are willing to sacrifice all their paychecks this season and make fans just shake their heads :Pruegelknabe: at this stupidity. Hockey players in the fiftees, sixtees to eightees never had such huge salaries as they do now when compared to the cost of living ratios then and now.

Strikes in the National Hockey League:

The 1992 NHL strike, which postponed 30 games of the 1991–92 season
The 1994–95 NHL lockout, which cancelled many of the games of the 1994–95 season and shortened the regular season to 48 games per team with no inter-conference games
The 2004–05 NHL lockout, which cancelled all of the games of the 2004–05 season
The ongoing 2012–present NHL lockout, which began on September 15, 2012

Of course it's about money, especially when this is the guy running the league.

Jews are the worst people to run anything! They inevitably will run things to the ground (like Western Civilization).

That said, I only ever watched it during the playoffs. I never followed it, but enjoy playing it.

Ofc, Hockey is my favourite sport to watch, I played it myself some years as a center.
I have been very good at face offs and passing. Good stick handling too. Shot quality lacked. But I sustained some severe injuries so I have been advised to better quit it in order to avoid further damage

What bugs me is that CNN rarely talked about it. It didn't make it to the "news".
