Season forfeit yet?
The sizzle in the Steak
^^ tick-tock
I feel the need...
At this point, this is going to sound like heresy, but I would prefer that the NHL NOT play this season. I have little interest in attending a compressed 50 game schedule of ONLY Wester Conf teams. Tempted to take my money and run.

There's not going to be a season.
Fibi, take that money and run.
With the coin, buy a bottle of single malt and "let it rain" with the rest.
You know how the playas play, yo!

So if they do have a reduced schedule season there will be only conference games and no inter-conference games?

Stupidest lockout...ever.

And Fehr seems to be banking on the owners starting to bicker internally...? If that is indeed the case, he is going to lose this game of chicken.

Thinking I might as well use the vacation day I was saving for the game I wanted to see Dec 13 this Wednesday and just have a longer break now.

He waits everyone out until they cave. That's been his M.O. since...well...forever.
The players only have themselves to blame for hiring this guy to represent them.
There will be no season.
I'd be shocked if Fehr blinked.

Less Hockey equals More Dildos?
EDMONTON - Retailers say the NHL lockout has led to a boost in sales of sex toys and lingerie among couples.
“We’d be gearing up for (NHL hockey) now but there’s nothing so I guess we need to find some better ways to spend our time!” said Vinay Morker, owner of the Hush Lingerie and More boutique, while at Edmonton’s Taboo Naughty But Nice Sex Show Saturday.
Morker said his south Edmonton location saw a 15% jump in sales in October, and although the absence of Oilers action has been killing the longtime fan, it could also be the reason more couples have been browsing his wares at the show.
“When Oilers fans, mostly guys, have to break their routine of seeing every game, they have more time,” Morker said. “And there’s nothing better than spending it with your spouse or girlfriend.”
Morker said Hush’s main clientele is couples looking to “expand their horizons” and he’s seen a 15% jump in the sales of their sex toys, lingerie, games and sexual guides, like The Kama Sutra, since October.
Hal Roseberg, owner of Tease Adult Boutique in Edmonton, said he saw a similar leap in business this year, which he usually attributes to an influx of cold weather.
“I suppose that’s one of the other reasons it’s as busy as it is, there’s no hockey,” Roseberg said.
Roseberg said it’s Tease’s second year at the show, and he believes it’s a great way for couples to spend the weekend.
“You see stuff here you’ll never see anywhere else,” he said with a smile.

Usually by this point, I would be in some heated e-fight with dom and Waldorf about goalies or something.
But, nope. Nothing this year. So boring.
dom: Kessel sucks. Yeah! You like that?

Hey, Yanks, what kind of coverage if any is this lockout getting down there? I'm hearing next to no coverage at all.
Just heard back to back live interviews with Steve Fehr and then Bill Daly on the radio. I don't think this is being solved anytime soon. And I really couldn't care less either way.
