Sid & Penguins about to save NHL season? - Page 2

The NHL doesn't have the leverage like the NFL does. NHL players can go home and play and still make a decent salary. That's not too bad.
In the NFL, there's nothing else for those guys and their careers are a lot shorter. This thing is going to end badly because the owners don't have the power to back down the players and their getting the middle finger from them right now.
Hate to see it lost for this season, but I can survive without hockey.
This is just one more reason we need the Steelers to make the playoffs. With no hockey, we need January football.

Yeah, the fat bitch done sung when the NHL filed a class action suit against the NHLPA for unfair labor practices.

This is also officially just over half the season gone (50.8)...no way they're coming back from this.
