I'm not overly familiar with the inner workings of the options market but isn't there a good chance a lot of the shorter term put options that people bought to hedge ended up expiring worthless because of the halt?

Seems to me if you hedged with March or April puts you would have gotten screwed twice... But I'm probably missing something.
