Default Re: NHL locks out players- season threatened

Historically in hockey, the union caves before they lose a season.

I heard the commisioner's press conference today--it sounds like they really mean business and have hired some really good PR people.

The players have to cave in this one anyway--unlike in baseball, many of the teams really are losing a lot of money under the current system, and if something doesn't change, we won't see more hockey.

It's a shame--last year's playoffs had gotten me excited about the game for the first time in a while.
