Who needs hockey? NHL lockout sparks rise in sex toy sales

What are couples in Canada doing now that, thanks to the NHL lockout, they can't watch professional hockey players knock pucks? Knocking boots, apparently. Sex-paraphernalia retailers in Edmonton say they've seen a marked rise in sales of sex toys and lingerie since the lockout began, with sales of sex games and guides, like the Kama Sutra, stiffening since October as well. One shop owner said he was pretty sure the lack of hockey was responsible for the stronger-than-average sales. With no action on the ice, he said, people in Canada "need to find some better ways to spend our time!" And total bonus: No penalty for high-sticking. [Source]
