+1.+1
I was hoping the season would be toast, resolve the matter over the summer allowing time to forget this year had happened. To throw a short season at fans feels like scraps from the table.
The owners/players cost the sport half a season. I hope fans return the favor now. Like James said, lets see how many fans stick to their guns on being fed up.
If fans act like it never happened and return to watching the NHL, it'll just give them the impression that they can keep pulling this crap again and again.
