	ESPN.com - NHL - Empty nets: NHL lockout will begin Thursday
		The stoppage is the first for a North American major sports league since the 1998-99 NBA lockout canceled 464 games, cutting each club's regular-season schedule from 82 games to 50.
		It is the third stoppage for the NHL following a 10-day strike in 1992 that caused the postponement of 30 games and a 103-day lockout in 1994-95 that eliminated 468 games, cutting each team's regular-season schedule from 84 games to 48.
		Bettman said the season can't extend past June, and the lockout threatens to wipe out the Stanley Cup final for the first time since 1919, when the series between Montreal and Seattle was stopped after five games due to a flu epidemic.

		But those seats will either stay empty or be filled by spiteful souls, who, like many, will not be as forgiving as some NBA players believe for a number of reasons.
		The NFL's got to be due for a work stoppage sometime.
