Yeah, I am totally against mobbing people but the owners of the Flames and Jets deserve whatever they have coming. Flames owner invests in oil sands and has 1.5-2.5B in net worth but can’t fork out a million to support the staff that run his business. On top of that has the gulls to demand 300M of taxpayer money to build a new arena. Makes me sick. 

This will backfire on the flames big time

Classless act by any pro sports team that can’t cover their minimum wage employees 

 

I will make sure that any team pulling that crap does not directly never gets a dollar directly from me 

 

what goes around around comes around and there is a reason some franchises are truly pathetic 

 

f all the teams that don’t pay up 

 

they don’t realize what social wrath is coming their way 

Is there a list of which teams and owners ? Despicable. I would like to know because they aren’t getting a dollar from me either.

man its going to be interesting to see the effect of all this on player development and scouting. Do some teams decide to rush prospects? hold them back another year? wait to sign guys? who the heck knows.

Flames fans had to step up with a go fund me campaign (which many players have donated to) 

 

to me this is even more embarrassing to the flames ownership group 

 

this is after the Calgary citizens Had to fund their pathetic new arena

As much as I despise Brad Marchand, this makes him a bit more tolerable as a human being.  Not hockey player mind you....

 

But any "Go Fund Me" associated with the NHL is a disgrace - talk about a glaring statement.  Seriously?  These owners should be ashamed...

I guess in a way we should not be surprised 

 

look what did owners did last lockout, no regard for the fans whatsoever 

 

just pure greed 

 

I respect players, always been classy

Not sure if this has been talked about, but does anyone know what/if there will be salary cap implications due to this shut down? The league is obviously losing tonnes of revenue right now.

 

I think the cap was supposed to be 84-88 million next year..

The Flames have been a low class organization for years. This is no surprise.

Imagine this

middle of May or June hockey comes back no season, straight to playoffs, playoffs become best  of 3 instead of 7 

 

Vancouver finally wins its first cup but never respected by media or other teams for it as it Was not won traditionally like all other teams 

 

calling it now
