I almost half want the NHL to fold and get a new league started.

1. WHA
The World Hockey Assocition is starting up next year.

I believe Teams are:
Quebec Nordiks (!!actual spelling!!)
Halifax Ice Breakers
Detroit
Hamilton
Toronto
Dallas
Florida

I however don't want the NHL abolished, just reformed.

2. Not a full season
I don't think that we'll see any hockey until January. Sad, but true.

3. Half a Season, Half a Cup :)
And this will be the year that Toronto wins it all, right? Just like the last year. Or... :) Aw, nevermind, i'm just kidding around.

6. I agree, the Leafs are not to be cheered for...
unless they are in the playoffs against an American team. But have no fear I will only offer distain, not violence.

7. sorry
Oh sorry, I actually didn't mean to direct that at you. I'm sorry if that was how it was interpreted. It was more a general statement to no one in particular, just to Torontonians who think every year is THE year.
