Surprise, surprise... Goodenow steps down before the NHL players get a chance to oust him.

At long last, let's drop the puck? Hockey players approve labor deal; 90% for.

Players screwed; owners laughing all the way to the bank. Think they'll give some back to the fans? I for one will be very surprised if Goodenow has his job at the onset of the season. Save face? Too late for that. My six year old daughter can see the players got their derriere handed to them. As a former player and having sat through the last lockout, Goodenow tried to portray himself as some tough guy who promised he would never back down from management and there would never be a cap. All he was was a puppet for the marquis players. I wouldn't puke on the guy. Nice job General Goodenow, here comes the dishonorable discharge.

Chris Chelios, a possible future Hall of Famer, just made the worst blunder of his career, and it wasn't even on the ice. According to TSN, Chelios said that NHL commissioner Gary Bettman (who is Jewish) should "get the gas" for his treatment of the players. Poor choice of words? Taken out of context? Just being a jackass? No matter what, Chelios just F-ed himself in the B.

Getting gassed or getting the gas is a commonly used phrase for getting fired. Why does everything anyone says need to be taken out of context. Get a clue.

Don't kid yourself. This was no resignation. When you have a membership that is pissed off because of the recent CBA settlement, but you've done a good job for them in the past, they tell you to resign or they will can you.
