... Why Day 39 of the lockout feels like day 139?

... If those involved in the negotiations are losing sleep on a nightly basis like I am?

... If there is an NHL owner out there without enough guts to speak publicly on the lockout? The owners certainly did not get to where they are now by not speaking their mind, yet as of tonight they all look like sheep in a herd.

... When are the media leaks are going to stop? Knowledgeable fans can see right through them and casual fans are too busy simulating the season by using their thumbs.

... How many fans are going to say they are done with the NHL and mean it this time?

... Where is the voice of reason on both sides? Someone must know what harm will be done if this lockout goes much longer.

... No, there is wondering on this one- Right now, the NHLPA would rather sit a full year (with the current NHL proposal) if it meant Gary Bettman was no longer in charge of the NHL.
