I NEED HOCKEY!!!

God, I can't take this anymore. This incident could ruin hockey for a generation. Entire preseason, regular, and playoffs axed and nobody said an effing word! That's when I realized something: Hockey is dead. Over 80 games got cancelled and the general public couldn't give a rat's ass.
Remember the uproar in the 80s when the players striked in football? The uproar and the furor when baseball was put off in the 90s? Can you imagine if college or pro basketball was cancelled next year? People would be outraged.
But I'd bet less than 5 percent of the world blinked when the hockey as we know it was cancelled.
I realize that this is probably a repeat but I'm crawling up the walls.

Fill me in. Has the NHL folded or something? Used to play roller hockey over this side of the pond, might take it up again sometime

There was a humongous labor/owner dispute and because neither side would compromise the entire SEASON was cancelled. Like I said, pre, regular, post season, Finals, All-Star game, the 9.
