Solution to Hockey riots
 

Now that Winnipeg has a team, i have a guaranteed solution to prevent any and all hockey riots.

Hold all Stanley cup playoffs in Winnipeg in Feb when it's -40C outside. Cancel the game if the temperature goes above -30C.

guaranteed no riots outside no matter what happens in the game.

interesting idea, or just hold it on NORTH POLE!

Why not just shoot people that riot with rubber-bullets? Just fire until there's noone left!

That's exactly what I was thinking.

hmm you are on to something here... If the finals were not held at the home town arenas that would definitely lower the chances of any rioting after games.. have it go on a tour even of a hand full of arenas across the league.. would be good for the sport I'd say...

hometown fans may miss out on some home games, but they are the ones ruining it with riots.

You are assuming Canadian teams will be making the finals. lol ......

I assume he suggest that no matter what teams qualify hold playoffs in one city (something like final 4 or final 8 that is quite popular in the world)

That would work unless I was there because I would cause a riot when running like
hell to get to my car and get the fuck out of the cold.

They did this year..... D'Oh!!!!

I'm talking about next year when Tampa plays Boston.

(No, I'm not taking bets :1orglaugh)

Good idea Scott. I was thinking along the same line. The NHL season is way to long. Once summer hits I don't give a fuck about hockey.. I mean still hockey in the middle of June? It's absolutely retarded. Should be wrapped up and done by February the latest.

It'S about the dollaz, they would be stupid to shorten the season... :2 cents:

TSN, RDS.... Man so many biz would lose money ending season in Feb

they need to identify and throw the book at the people that did this, it would be remembered next time this kind of thing might start to happen and you would remove the "casual rioters" that make the police job so difficult

$100 bucks Montreal makes it to finals :winkwink:

Yea it is about the dollaz.. I think one of the reasons hockey hasn't caught on in the US is the really long seasons tho.

hockey hasn't caught on in the US???????

NHL has 30 franchised clubs, 6 in Canada, 24 in the USA
NHL is headquartered in NY

this makes no sense...


plus baseball has a 162 game season so whether enough people in the US like it or not it has nothing to do with season length...
