Contour Enthusiasts Group Archives Forums General Common Interests Whats goin on with the NHL?

I think the NHL may be done. Even if they were to come to an agreement(I don't think they will) most teams don't have the financial resources to tough it out till they win back angry fans or create new ones. One thing both sides don't seem to understand is that the percentage of peoples income that goes toward entertainment is getting smaller and the number of businesses that depend on those dollars is quite large so if you can't fulfill your customers needs they'll just go some place else.
The owners will be fine. This is not their bread and butter. The players will have a little tougher time finding a job that pays as well!
