Tony Kornheiser says hockey is dead, relegated to "MLS Hell."

Ted Leonsis respectfully responds, saying hockey is "is having a gangbuster year."

Ace blogs Off Wing and Japers' Rink are all over it -- and not fond of Kornheiser's half-baked opinions -- here and here.

  This is one time that I totally agree with Tony. They really ruined the sport. I am a long time NHL fan but it is hard to watch most of the time now.

  Hockey is the best sport in the world and one of the most exciting.  I guess Tony has not been to hockey game in awhile or maybe he would change his opinion.  Tony - go to a basketball game if you don't like hockey, it may get exciting in the last 5 minutes but then again it may be a blowout.

  Tony,
  
  You just don't get it, You've never Played, You've never Skated!
  
  Have you ever attended a game, Have you ever tried to watch any
  
  games to understand the skill that it takes to Skate, Shoot, Avoid
  
   a 225lb'der coming at you on a dime.
  
  The leauge had a bad year last year, it's rebounded with new exciting
  
   rules with the shoot out, And now it's the most exciting time of the year
  
   with plafoffs right around the corner.
  
  You can't compare Hockey to any other sport, It is a very selective game
  
  for the few who appreicate it, Just because you don't , Don't put it down!!
