It's a niche sport like MLS. It's never going to be as popular as the NFL or MLB but that's ok. They still have a loyal, passionate fanbase.

HD TV's have eliminated the need of the glowing puck thingy, luckily.

Bearcat - I was hoping that they might make it free, let me know if you see anything on that!

I don't want expansion, I don't want a watered down league. Keep hockey on NBC/CBS sports and NHLN with few commercials during the game and no commercials during OT. And when I talk hockey, I don't want to talk about fantasy hockey.

This will be even worse in 10 years when they realize that half the NFL has brain damage.

I'm mad as hell about there being another lockout, but at least it seems to be a long term agreement with a mutual option to opt out after year 8.

Here's to no more lockouts.

LOL. Didn't know they were on strike.

I have no beef with rugby, it's as manly a sport as there is. I was referring to him as a person.

Hockey is fun during the playoffs. I guess that's true of just about all sports though.

After the abortion that was the Chiefs season, it's going to be liberating to watch a team in the Penguins who know WTF is going on. Can't wait for the start of the season. As much as I'd like to say I would be "sticking it to them" by locking the NHL out of my interest, I can't. Hockey is like crack to me. I need my fix.
