Title: False hope got the few NHL fans Post by: Tynstar on February 16, 2005, 07:06:51 AM They have pushed the deadline back 2 hours.
I can't believe the hold up is 7 million dollars. League said 42 million salary cap the NHLPA said no 52 million cap. League said no so the NHLPA says 49 million cap NHL say no. ::) Gary Bettman needs to go away. He is the reason hockey is the way it is.

It would be nice if that cap issue gets resolved. Its a few million dollars >:( Title: Re: False hope got the few NHL fans Post by: Tynstar on February 16, 2005, 08:00:29 AM This artilce is so true it is sad.

At least some progress was made so there is a chance for hockey next season.
Title: Re: False hope got the few NHL fans Post by: Tynstar on February 16, 2005, 09:42:10 AM Well it is official Gary Bettman needs to die. Good bye the sports I once loved.
Title: Re: False hope got the few NHL fans Post by: den68 on February 16, 2005, 11:00:12 AM season cancelled. wow. I don't see how Bettman and Goodenow can keep their jobs after this.
Title: Re: False hope got the few NHL fans Post by: Tynstar on February 16, 2005, 11:11:35 AM I would bet that if Bettman where to walk down a street in Canada right now he would be killed.

I agree. What a disgrace. I am sick of not seeing any hockey. I wish they would show jr hockey or college down here :( Title: Re: False hope got the few NHL fans Post by: Sauza12 on February 17, 2005, 06:28:41 AM At least up here you can't walk down the street without tripping over a hockey team. We have plenty of opportunity to watch hockey, includng a few pro's playing on the Motor City Mechanics. I think they are a UHL team that Kris Draper and Chris Chelios play on. I feel bad for you guys down there.

Rub it in bastards....Rub it in. :( All we have is club hockey at ASU and U of A And then there is Nothern Arizona University ::) But they are just stinking clubs. Hell I could go watch an "A" league at a local ice rink and watch a game just as good :-/ Title: Re: False hope got the few NHL fans Post by: Tynstar on February 17, 2005, 08:10:44 AM I dont care that we have no hockey to watch. I have lost all intrest in the sport. The only thing I want to see is Steve Yzerman play again. After that I am done.
I wisk Phoenx had a pro Curling club. Now that would be the shit.
