Hey,

Just wondering what people's opinions are about it! What do you think Joe?

I think it totally sucks. But, it would seem that they need some kind of revenue sharing amonst all of the teams to help the smaller markets survive. Supposedly, the NHL is the only major pro league that does not do this. It looks like the owners and the players will not budge on their positions, so it may be a while. At least I get to play on my own team once a week.

The players need to realize that they are not on the same platform as the NFL, NBA, and MLB. Most of them have forgotten about the 14 hour bus rides on old buses. I am sure the owners are willing to wait this out and may even start next season with "scabs." At least you Ancorage Aces have Scotty Gomez wowing the locals again.
