I want Bettman as far away from the NHL as possible, don't get me wrong, but he's just a puppet. The owners, and more specifically Jeremy Jacobs, pull the strings. Jacobs is the chairman of the Board of Governors. He's the guy that called the vote to lock the players out in September, and the guy who wanted to call off yesterday's meetings early. And they were going to let him do it.

"Let's leave," said Boston Bruins owner Jeremy Jacobs, turning to NHL deputy commissioner Bill Daly.
"It's up to you," replied Daly.

More reason the hate the Bruins I guess
 
I'm not on either side but let's get real here. The players are a bunch of whining spoiled brats. They get paid millions of dollars to play a game and they have no financial risk if the team doesn't make money. While I'm not on the owners side they are the owners and they run the show. If you or me went and asked our bosses for 50 percent of what the company makes in revenue we would be laughed at.

These players don't pay for a single thing, all travel, equipment, equipment staff, medical staff, etc etc etc is all paid by the owners. You don't see Crosby or whoever else is sharing 50 percent of their endorsement deals with the owners now do you?

They can all go to hell at this point if this entire season gets canceled.
 
The owners are the greedy obnoxious a-holes they are the ones who locked everyone out. The players got screwed last time god forbid they don't want to bend over and take it from behind again. The owners are the biggest whiners of all here you were rich enough to buy the damn team now deal with paying for it. The players shouldn't have to share endorsement deals with owners that just be dumb. That money is for 1 individual, the money the team gets is for the franchise not just the owner to pocket.

Players got screwed last time? That CBA ended up turning out to be a sweet deal for them, contracts values at an all time high and the average salary is about 150% more then it was prior to the last CBA. The players union doesn't even want a long term deal with this CBA. The owners never should have given out these ridiculous contracts in the first place to these players so they did this to themselves.

Neither side gives a damn about us fans and in the end, especially if we miss an entire season it's going to come back at them ten fold when many fans show they don't give a damn about these players or teams anymore either.

The Mao

http://necrometrics.com/20c5m.htm

It is conservatively estimated that Mao was responsible for 45 million deaths.
While their were unseen to us and beyond our feelings, there pain was real, very real. Children with souls just as precious as own starved to death without a shred of decency.

It may seem to funny to flippantly so cheaply disregard them, but comparing the treatment with those that average a salary of 2.4 million is sickening to say the least. A pursuit of Common Decency would be more helpful to your point, and resist indirectly valuing those lost lives at a nickel a head.
