Will there be an NHL season at all? That question is being raised as the lockout continues with no end in sight.
Former NHL’er Marty McSorley came to Saint John last week to play in an oldtimers game and raise money for minor hockey. He’s not shy about speaking out saying the players have drawn a line in the sand.
McSorley tells CHSJ News hockey fans in the U.S. view the lockout differently because they have become accustomed to work stoppages in the NFL, NBA and Major League Baseball over the years.
McSorley adds if there was a true Commissioner in the league, we wouldn’t be dealing with this because the NHL is much more than just Gary Bettman and the owners.
He maintains the players lost alot in the last collective agreement that was largely written by the owners.
