The drawback to marital longevity is your wife always knows when you're really interested in her and when you're just trying to bury it.

Watching Gary Bettman right now, with his "we have the best fans" and "we are sorry because of the fans" bullshtein, I want to kick his teeth in.

Goodenow is the one that deserves getting kicked, if you ask me.  He had no hand, yet he played his part marginally at best. 

Both Goodenow and Bettman deserve all the hatred they get, for allowing this thing to go weeks and months with no communication.  This was never about the fans.  It was about stubborness and stupidty on the players' part, with a fair share of greed on the owners' part.

I'm die-hard hockey, and have been a season ticket holder to the Blues for years.  This, to me, is a slap in my face and a total disregard for the thousands of dollars I spend each year to follow this sport.  My tickets have been cancelled, and it will take a while before I pay to support this league again.  I'll still follow and watch TV for free, but my dollars are staying with me.

While they both deserve to be kicked, HOWEVER, the NHL has gone downhill since Bettman took it over. He's done NOTHING to help the league...he should have been replaced years ago. He's a farging joke .

That, I'll agree with.  But specific to this fine mess, I put more blame on Goodenow than Bettman.

First mistake. Wales and Campbell were hockey history. He's an icehole.

Not to mention the over-expansion and extreamley low TV ratings........
Zero hour, Michael. It's the end of the line. I'm the firstborn. I'm sick of playing second fiddle. I'm always third in line for everything. I'm tired of finishing fourth. Being the fifth wheel. There are six things I'm mad about, and I'm taking over.
