I wonder if the owners thought about getting "replacements"! Obviously wouldn't be the same but it would be an awesome slap in the face to the players. I'm use to not seeing hockey on tv anymore or trying to go home from work and 40 not being a parking lot because of the games. Glad there's still NFL, college football and basketball.

Cancelled through Dec 30..... of what year? Forever seems appropriate. I don't envy the wealthy, but it brings to mind a favorite saying of mine: "Until you decide how much is enough, you'll never have enough". All the fun, excitement and associated jobs down the tubes because the greedy cannot decide how to divide the spoils.

Loyal STH, for 11 yrs, we are so disappointed re this year!! However, we have gotten over it. Sad part is that there may be substancial permanent damage to hockey in more than THIS market. The greedy players and owners should be ashamed, but why should we expect any better? They all "talk" a good game re appreciating fans, arena workers, and other associates. Will the philanthropy and good will for 2012 continue? I doubt it.

After reading the posts here, it seems the Canes are losing a lot of STH's, and that is their life's blood, so if or when there is a season, the Canes Organization will lose even more money than usual. I can't blame anyone for cashing in - why have money tied up in a sport that isn't being played. Sad situation all around.

Actually, a little over $4000. With that being said, where in the lower bowl do you sit? Never really knew that where you sat made a difference as far as being a fan is concerned. CLEARLY, you aren't a hockey fan. You'd be one of those fools that would want to sit by the ice and miss half of the plays cause you simply can't see them. Try sitting up higher to see the entire game. Oh wait...you don't go to hockey games...lol

I agree! let 'em all suffer. baseball nearly ruined itself in 1994 with a work stoppage. it took years of rampant steroid use to demolish records which had stood for 50+ years, but that's what piqued the fan's interest and brought them back. hope the NHL saw this and will not allow this type of action to prevail once they return to the ice....and they WILL return
