I was watching the Admirals/Hershey game last night when they broke in with Bettman's comments during break. Am I alone in feeling an instant desire to kick this guys ass every time I see his face? I don't hate many people but man this tool bag is skirting that line.
Careful, your hate feeds his soul and makes him more powerful.

Will fans react to a loss of the complete season or will they support the nhl as before (the next season)?
I wish the league would take a financial hit from this but I doubt they really will. The reason is, for US sports leagues, the NHL has a small yet dedicated fan base....the population of "bandwagon" fans for hockey is much smaller than in other professional sports.
Hell, you could argue one of the reasons we're in this situation now is because the league didn't get significantly hurt the last time it happened.
