Scabs

Bring on the scabs. I'm not real sure of all the pitfalls of fielding (icing?) replacement players, but I say let's go. I'm a hockey fan, first and foremost. I want to see top-level play. If the only people that will provide it are minor league, college, and international players, then I say "where's the season ticket form?" I'm not willing to pay the same prices, but I'll pay more than I'm paying now (i.e. nothing).
