  Let drop the puck

OK, this whole NHL thing has reached the state of absurdity. Six months ago a lock out over a salary cap that the players would never accept, now accepted. Who's calling the shots here? If a real deadline would have been established in September, would it have been settled in September? I think so.

We are a hockey family and will always be one. But this kind of foolishness really makes it tough to respect the league and the players as professionals.

Should they play part of a season, or call the whole thing off? I think at some point you have to start the healing. May as well be now.

You want to improve the game. Make the "left wing lock" as illegal as "two men in motion". Throw the left wing in the sin bin for 2 minutes and let the game open back up. Nobody wants to watch Stanley Cup hockey with 4 guys camped out in the nuetral zone.

Drop the Puck!!!!

  Let drop the puck

Yesterdays grand announcement wasn't much of a surprise. Puck em all. Pro sports has become more of a display of greed and overblown egos than an entertainment event. I don't inderstand why a defensive lineman has to dance all over the field for making a tackle. Isn't that what he is paid $2.5 million dollars a year to do.

We are a family of hockey players, so there was always the entertainment value of watching the skill level of the NHL. I'm not sure any sport at any skill level is worth putting up with this kind of crap for.

I feel really bad for the folks that make their living off of the NHL, ticket takers, popcorn guys, and all the rest that try to earn a honest living off the events. The rest of them can all....
