The season is almost here but...

Question

how much would they have to pay you to miss the entire upcoming season? .. let's say you can't see any games, highlights or read or hear any news at all until 2 weeks after the Cup is won...

Answer 1

There's not enough money in the world!!

jks..... I'd probably take about the same amount of money Bill Gates has. Even more!

Answer 2

The Flyers have been paying me for 32 years with seasons that end because of every reason under the sun for not winning the Cup.

Answer 3

Enough to buy the Islanders just so I can fire Garth Snow and tell him and Wang not to let the door hit him in the @$$ on the way out.

Answer 4

I demand $15 million, an explicit e-mail address, an olympic gold medal, bragging rights that i beat up George W. Bush, and my own genie. and i want a 2008 Mitsubishi Lancer Evo X, wait, make that 3, and i want to be the GM of the Avs.

Answer 5

-_- i wouldnt I would secreatly watch somewhere, because I LOVE HOCKEY.            But i guess PAYING ME IN Hockeyteams would be GREAT, i would only want oh about   10:P

Answer 6

They would have to buy me 2 seasons worth of tickets... More if i'm feeling cranky.

Answer 7

I would never be bought out in that instance, not even for more moolah than you and I BOTH could imagine.

I've been waiting for the season opener for months, and NO ONE's gonna stop me from being in that seat when the puck drops.

Answer 8

They didn't pay hockey fans when there was the lockout in 2004-05.  I survived that alright with OHL hockey.  It's generally a better quality game then in the NHL, and I can actually afford the games.  It would majorly depress me, but I'd manage. And I still want my check from the last season I missed...

Answer 9

Assuming i could still play as much hockey as i want the realistic answer is i would gladly accept 50 million dollars and sit out a season.  After all I survived the lock-out and that was for free.
