Yea, I'd probably still watch the games like everyone else, mostly because I'm curious to see what it'll be like. My interest and excitement level won't be anywhere near what it usually is though, especially once they get into playoffs. Even with a short training camp, players are gonna be rusty as hell when they come back, especially goaltenders. It wouldn't be at all surprising to see some garbage team like the Oilers or Canucks fluke their way to the Cup final due to the elite teams not being in game shape. Not sure I'm too keen on that possibility.
