NHL, NHLPA Fail Again

Negotiations between the NHL and NHLPA have been an emotional roller coaster for the last week. Yesterday, things quickly turned from a glimmer of hope to epic failure, and the 2012-13 season is now in as close to being lost as every before.

    This is flat out ridiculous. Shame on the owners for letting Fehr play his games and allowing him to dictate the pace of these negotiations, shame on the players for bringing this bozo into the world of hockey, and shame on Fehr for placing his ego ahead of the needs of the people who hired him.

    Maybe when he is done destroying hockey Fehr can go to Mexico and destroy their national football league. It only seems right that he should destroy the main leagues of the national pastimes of all the major North American countries.
