You make some great points here Baloo and I am just about to sit down to dinner here, but all you need to know about Gary Bettman's tenure as commish you can find out by googling how much money Tampa Bay made the year they won the Stanley Cup and the years after...I will attempt to refute some of your positions in about an hour...

Baloo you know who the Leafs are playing tonight? Gary Bettman presided over the only full season lockout in North American pro sports history...John Z. in my estimation was a status quo kind of Commish, he diffused the WHA NHL war and brought 6-10 new teams into the league, he was a product of a different time in hockey but it seems to me anyway you went from a pure hockey guy to a nerdy arrogant clocksucker all business guy. But NO US National TV contract is in my estimation inexcusable, you serve as commish at the pleasure of the owners and simply put GB is NOT good for business. Sun belt teams in non traditional markets is an admirable goal but the CB analysis should have been done at the 10 year mark and either contraction or team relocation should have been pursued...
