NHL Lockout Officially Over
- Blackhawks players are no longer locked out by the NHL. But they’re pretty much locked out of the United Center for a while.
The NHL and NHLPA once again went deep into the night to hammer out the details of the Memorandum of Understanding that made the new collective bargaining agreement — ratified by the NHL Board of Governors on Wednesday and by the players Saturday morning — official and ended the lockout a little after 9 p.m. Saturday. That allowed teams to release their 48-game schedules, open training camp (the Hawks, begin Sunday) and make transactions.
And thanks to the Bulls, Disney on Ice, and Lady Gaga, the Hawks will play 10 of their first 12 games on the road, starting on Jan. 19 in Los Angeles against the defending Stanley Cup champion Kings.
Start repairing the damage.

Who cares? I've locked the NHL out of my life. Millionaires and billionaires were arguing over how to share all they were making for the third time in 12 years while the fans were left in the wind again, despite both sides urging that last time had to be the last. Obviously, my adding any money to their woes would be like buying booze for an alcoholic so I won't be an enabler anymore. Go Wolves
Lsdy GaGa????
I love her outfits. Are tickets still available?
Now, kees me you fool!!!!
now go get that 2nd line big ,mean,offensive minded center!PRONGER IS AN UFA!GET HIM!WELCOME BACK MY NHL....I HAVE MISSED U DEARLY!NOW LETS GO HAWKS!!
Who cares ? I'm officially done ! I started to give them the benefit of the doubt after old man Wirtz died and the Hawks started doing better. Now, they killed it for me, so as I stated, Who cares ?
The NHL owners can give two shits about its fans so don't expect much as far as them trying to make it up to us. Just keep paying the HIGH ticket and concession prices.
LET'S GO BLACKHAWKS.
who cares? I didn't even realize they were on strike.
Does anybody really care anymore?
Really ? Who cares? What is hockey by the way ?
Big F--king deal
Who cares! The Pack just got handled by the Niners....HAAAAAA!!!!
Cheeseheads, fly back to Green Bay and STFU! Can you say BEAT DOWN...
I'm sick of these millionaires vs. billionaires bitching about the almighty dollar and the only ones getting screwed is the fans. Where does it end. I'm a huge sports fan but will NOT give any of my money to these crybabies who are making huge dough and consistently screwing their fan base.
People should stick together for one game and boycott a sporting event. Let the hawks play before 20,000 empty seats. No revenue from parking, concessions, gift shop, etc. Maybe then they'll realize how much power the fans have & we're the only reason they are filthy rich!
Stupid fans will pay UP the ASS for lost revenue!
You're on the wrong blog if you're trying to convince a group of people to stick together and show a force. We've been fucked up for at least our last 5 contracts. Dork.
The sad thing is they will still sell out every game......some people never learn.
Missed hearing Lloyd Pettit this year....Glen Hall needed a rest anyway
now go get that 2nd line big ,mean,offensive minded center!PRONGER IS AN UFA!GET HIM!WELCOME BACK MY NHL....I HAVE MISSED U DEARLY!NOW LETS GO HAWKS!!

Pronger, a center? Yeah, ok, you're a true hockey fan. Make sure you buy a $300 jersey, wear your baseball hat backwards, yell "fight, fight!" everytime there is a hit along the boards, and get up for a beer/return from getting a beer, during the middle of play. This is the same guy who is a Cubs fan in the summer. Call it Wrigley South.
All remaining games for 2013 should be free of charge. Management should also provide free beer and Hot Dogs/Pizza/Nachos to the fans for putting up with them and the greedy players. I wouldn't pay a cent to watch any team in this country. It's all about the mighty dollar.
pronger is a goaliie in vancouver!we gonna get him for da wolves!
Thanks to Gary Bettman and greedy players the Hawks are playing 10 of their first 12 on the road.

It's like basketball without the felony convictions, and it takes a little discipline instead of an extra gene.
I was really bummed with the lockout and am quite happy it's over.
The Bears slid into an abyss, the Cubs and Sox don't hold much promise for this spring, Derrick Rose is still out so LET'S GO HAWKS!!
