Hockey Lover Wants Fans To Oppose Lockout

A former Liverpool resident is asking fans to show their true feelings towards the state of the NHL lockout. David Sampson has started a facebook group called "Let's Take Away the NHL Pie" to encourage fans to rally together and send a message to the league and its players. Sampson is proposing people gather October 27 in Windsor to have a bonfire and burn their NHL memorabilia like hats and jerseys.  He says the owners and players have forgotten about the fans.



Sampson says holding an event in Windsor makes the most sense because it's considered the birthplace of hockey. He believes fans should also make a pledge not to buy any league apparel for the next five years.
