Remember Hockey?
It's been two weeks since the NHL began its lockout and the worst possible scenario for hockey appears to be unfolding - apathetic silence. At least when MLB and the NBA had their labor issues, there was moral outrage expressed by the public, against both sides. People were ticked, but they cared. The NHL's problems appear - at least south of the Mason-Dixon line - to have slid right on by public interest, lost in the midst of college and pro football and the race for the playoffs in baseball.
Does anyone out there care anymore about the NHL - except you, Jeff Carlton - and if so, how would you fix this mess? Yes, contraction is an option.
