Default NHL

Well, yes there is a thread on it, but its not a poll damnit.


So do you think the season will start? DO you think the season wont start? Do you think the season will start late like in 95? Or do you think there will never be NHL anymore because this lockout is the demise of it all.

i dont understand why hockey players dont make more money. Look at NBA player salaries, the highest of which are near $30,000,000 a year. Average all-star salary or very very good player is $12,000,000 a year. Minimum salary is 500,000 a year ... where does all the revenue for hockey go?

Doesn't matter that they don't make as much as NBA players, they need to shut the **** up, they're already overpayed. People who work extremely hard all their life don't even make a fraction of what they make.

Since when did hockey become a business rather than a fun sport?

yeah. I think all professional sport players are overpayed.

I mean, why do you need to make so much money? There is not one good reason why Basketball players make so much. They dont have much injury risk. Football i can understand. But hockey is getting rediculous.

The revenue goes to promotions, salaries, charities, stuff like that. You have to remember, Basketball is bigger in the US than hockey, so almost every team sells out every game.

And in Basketball they dont have much dispute about currency, considering there is only one Canadian team.

But with hockey, even rookies are making close to 1 million, and most of them play in the minors the first year.

I'm disgusted by this.

There's too many things wrong to rant about.

*boycotts the NHL for life*
