#dropthepuck The #NHL season is on!

Some National Hockey League fans were ecstatic, but some were still mad at the NHL when news broke Sunday morning that the NHL season will go on- pending final votes.

  20. Among the celebrating, there were those whose joy was tempered by anger over the inability of the two sides to come to an agreement earlier. Some wondered if it would hurt ticket sales.
