Essentially, it's another mini-lockout, like in 2012/13. Hopefully, quite a few NHL players (if that's contractually possible), especially of European heritage, will join KHL/European teams to play in the meantime, like they did back in 2012/13.
(Too bad my team currently isn't playing in the KHL, but it was great to get to see Ovechkin, Malkin et al to play in my home barn back in that unforgettable 2012/13 season!)
