NHL Lockout 2012- Minnesota Wild


More bad news fans- The National Hockey League canceled two weeks of the regular season Thursday, the second time games have been lost because of a lockout in seven years.


The announcement was made in a two-paragraph statement from the NHL. It isn't clear if those games will be made up, allowing for a complete 82-game regular season, if a deal can be struck soon with the locked out players.

They are unable to work out how to split up $3 billion (really? That's like nothing, comparatively) in hockey-related revenues with the players' association, the NHL wiped out 82 games from Oct. 11 through Oct. 24 — beginning with four next Thursday, which would have been the league's opening night.

Although there have been negotiations between the league and players in recent days, unlike the 2004-05 lockout that forced the cancellation of the entire season, the two sides haven't gotten any closer to a deal on core economic issues.


This is slightly embarrassing for everyone involved. Hockey should be about the game, not the money. We'll keep you posted.

NHL Lockout's and the MN Wild

Bad news guys..... I found this information on the Wild NHL website and then promptly started crying.



"The Minnesota Wild had four preseason games scheduled in the month of September, including two home games at Xcel Energy Center. The cancellation of the schedule was necessary because of the absence of a Collective Bargaining Agreement between the NHL Players’ Association and the NHL.

The club’s three remaining preseason games are still scheduled: Oct. 2 versus Winnipeg; Oct. 4 at Winnipeg; and Oct. 6 at Calgary.

Minnesota was scheduled to play two home-and-home series against Western Conference opponents in September. The Wild were scheduled to play its first preseason game in the state of Idaho, against the Stars on Tuesday Sept. 25 at CenturyLink Arena in Boise. The rest of the Wild's cancelled games include a home match versus Dallas on Sept. 26, at home against the St. Louis Blues and at St. Louis on Sept. 29."

MN Wild 2012 Season: Suter and Parise

It's seriously embarrassing how excited I am for puck season. I am such a sports fan; baseball, basketball, football, but can we be real for a second?

Hockey is so amazing. I grew up on a lake, my Dad played hockey for Cretin in high school, and I live in Minnesota. I feel like I was forced to like hockey, but not actually, because how could you not?

I could basically skate by the I learned to walk, and started playing in our community teams and the high school team by 4th grade and never stopped until I made it into college. Sorry, but D1 hockey is a little too competitive for me.

So.... probably it's fine that I'm excited about this?! Especially with Suter and Parise. Who's with me? Hockey fans, let's go.
