Let's face it: Generally the rich (owners and players) are getting richer and the poor (average fans) are getting poorer.

One would think your average lefty would want this lockout to go on forever. :drink:

You essentially can! Visit fanstrike.net & sign the petition. Join the movement and show your value as a fan by giving the NHL an ultimatum: either go back to work or lose our support!!!
