NHL Season Cancelled
Umm...Okay, whatever.

The NHL was rising in popularity throughout most of the 1990s, but now the sport just committed suicide. Hockey does not have the passion following in America like baseball, basketball or football. America isn't a hockey-driven country. The southern markets like Florida, Carolina, Tampa Bay, Nashville and others are going to have a very difficult time recovering from this.

How do you lose an entire season? They couldn't strike a deal with a gun essentially to their head, how will the NHL fix everything in the summer?

I like watching playoff hockey a lot, but it's not like my quality of life is going to be dramatically reduced without the NHL. I think a lot of people are like me. Playoff hockey is good, but without it I'm sure we'll all be fine.
