How many games will the NHL miss b/c of the pending lockout??

none, half, all???

I hate to be a pessimist, but I just think that there are too many issues, and the 2 sides are way to far apart, in terms of what each side wants and needs.

And it really sucks...

I truly believe that they will resolve it just before the season starts. It's been mighty quiet on the negotiations front, so I suspect more is getting done than is apparent

I'm an optimist :D

i hope they get this thing resolved.i'd hate the idea that one of our young players could get hurt in Switzerland or somewhere.
