I really, really miss the hockey season. It is the only sport I watch religiously. This lockout is terrible.
While I don't particularly agree with the salaries that any professional athletes recieve, I think if anyone earns their money, it's hockey players. There is another thread on this forum that states that hockey is the second or third most difficult sport to play, according to sports illustrated, I think. Also, considering the risk of injury factor (the Lindros brothers' concusion riddled careers are a perfect example) they should be paid way more than baseball or basketball players, but they are not.

One good thing is that some NHL players are now playing in the AHL, and the tickets are cheaper. I hope they are back for next season, I miss my Isles!
