As an NHL fans we need some sort of reassurance that no matter what we will have NHL hockey when October comes. We have lived through a lock out in 2005 and no one enjoyed that or wants that to happen again.

As NHL fans we need to let the NHL know that were not just going to sit around and wait for the season to start mid December or January. Gary Bettman and Donald Fehr need to understand that they will have no money to argue about splitting up if there is no season to begin with. It’s ridiculous to think that the NHL and NHLPA would literally throw out millions of dollars because they don’t know how to split it up among everyone.

Now I understand that both Gary Bettman and Donald Fehr have been quoted saying that if the scenario does arise that no new agreement has been met between the two that there is a possibility they could operate under the old/existing agreement. All we want is a guarantee from the two stating this would in fact take place.

Please take the time to sign my petition so we can all rest easy and enjoy our summer knowing the guarantee of an 2012-2013 NHL season.
