Being from Canada, HELL YEAH I want hockey to come back.
Someone mentionned earlier that it was the players fault that the league is in the position it is in right now. That is completely absurd. It's the owners fault the league is losing money. Who is the one that signed all these contracts. Boby Holik making 9 million dollars a season????? does it make sense?? Patrice Brisebois making 4 million, the list could go on and on.
Now this is not to say that I am on the players side in the argument. In fact I am with the owners. I think the league needs a salary cap. It will not sruvive without it.
Another thing, all you people saying they should get rid of the fighting in hockey???? Fighting has ALWAYS been part of the game, watch tapes from the 1920's and you'll see some fighting. And I don't understand how Americans would not like that.
Of course the game is turning boring nowadays, but that is mainly the east coast style of playing that is axed on defensive play. Watch the West coast style of play, it's more open. During the last playoffs did anyone see the Calgary vs. Vancouver series??? OH man, was that a great series, non stop up and down.
I got a plan B if the NHL can't get out of it. Take all 6 Canadian teams Add Winnipeg and Quebec and have an all Canadian league. hehehe
