The NHL is circling the drain - teams lost a combined $300 million last year. The league spent 76% of its revenue on salaries.
Are you fucking kidding me? The average NHL salary is $1.5 million. There are 30 teams (including such hockey hotbeds as Columbus, Tampa Bay, and Atlanta) It ain't working.
Bobby Hull is trying to take advantage of the NHL's money troubles and upcoming labor talks (which will almost certainly result in a strike/lockout) by starting a new World Hockey Association.
So long, hockey. Bring on spring football!
