Just general frusturation with the whole situation.
They can all go on about 'love of the game' and all that bullshit, but in the end this dispute was entirely about money so as a general 'fuck you' to the whole lot of them I just won't be spending any money on the sport this year.
In the end I know it won't make a difference and I will come crawling back once I remember how much fun I have watching games with my friends, but I'm still pretty pissed that the whole league got shut down for about 15% of the last 10 years. Hockey was finally starting to gain some ground with the big NBC contract this year and they went and fucked it up.

Am I the only one that isn't bothered by the players?
I look forward to others boycotting... makes it easier for me to get tickets.

Am I the only one that isn't bothered by the players? I'm with you here. Maybe they just spun it better (probably) but it never felt to me like they were the unwilling bunch in these negotiations. There are not enough bags of dicks in the world for me to smack Bettman across the face with.

Word. I don't feel entitled to anything as a fan. If they want to negotiate for higher pay, have at 'er.

Man, I can be as grumpy as I want about the lockout, but GOD DAMN do I get the all over shivers when I hear the first notes to that song and see all those damn towels. Go you beautiful bastards, go!

Sorry for digging this thread up, but Ben Scrivens just made 59 fucking saves in a shutout for the Oilers. I think it's the most saves ever in a regular season shutout. It was incredible to watch.

Yeah they're not dong so great... but neither are my Alberta teams so I'm not really one to talk trash right now.

Flames are having a great season so far. Probably won't be able to keep it up but I've been to a bunch of games already and it was super fun.

Ya, I'm pretty fucking pumped about that. Now if Ottawa could just clinch so Canada can collectively laugh at Toronto and Edmonton.
