The NHL declared the hockey season officially dead today. I could care less, but Minnesota is hockey country and there are probably more than a few disappointed Wild fans out there. It seems to me that canceling an entire season of a sport is an excellent way to kill a league. Baseball still hasn’t fully recovered from the 1995 strike; hockey was on even less certain footing before this travesty. Before long, the only professional sports left on television will be basketball, football, and golf.
