NBA Opening Door for NHL with Lockout
With the NBA being locked out, as last night was opening night, they are opening the door for the NHL to take the NBA's spot as the #2 professional sport in fall and winter behind the NFL, and especially for the spring when it will be only the NHL. The NBA will not only lose tons of money, but also, fans who are looking for other things to watch may turn their attention to the fast-paced and physical NHL. These fans will be hungry for sports during the week and on weekends (not including sunday) and if they are fans of physicality and skill, the NHL will snatch them right up.

This is a great point. I do not really enjoy hockey that much, but I have to be watching sports. If I don't have the NBA to watch in the spring after the NFL is gone I think I'll have to start watching hockey. I believe if I start watching it I'll probably fall in love with it as well.
