I understand the fear of Fehr (no pun intended), but are the issues between the two sides here really enough to cause a lockout? Compare it to where the owners and players were in 1995 and especially 2005 and christ. In 1995 they were on different planets, in 2005 they weren't even in the same galaxy. In 2010, they're on different continents. Unless that radically changes between now and 2012, I don't think we'll have a lockout. Or at the very least, not another season-destroying one.<br /><br />I have no idea why I just gave a serious reply to a humor website. Hilarious as usual DGB. I'm just so sick of hearing all this lockout, the-sky-is-falling stuff. Basketball fans have FAR more to worry about than we do right now. Hell, football fans probably do too.John C.http://centericeaddict.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6518202653898886981.post-87557928971237770382010-09-01T09:36:38.825-04:002010-09-01T09:36:38.825-04:00Totally off topic, but I just saw puck daddy's...Totally off topic, but I just saw puck daddy's article on the Leafs all time greatest list.

I've never noticed that before.<br /><br />(I like the other leagues' version more - it's an association of players, not an association belonging to players. At least, I think that's the difference....)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
