One career that should end is Bettman's.
Another would be Goodenow's.
Hanging's too good for them.
Concur. None of this had to happen.
Unfortunately, the NHL had to take care of three bankrupt franchises over the past five seasons (Pittsburgh Penguins, Ottawa Senators and Buffalo Sabres).
Oddly enough, what made the Buffalo situation even worse was that the Sabres was then owned by John Rigas (founder of Adelphia Cable) who schemed with his son to loot both the Sabres franchise and Adelphia Cable of millions and millions of dollars, forcing the NHL to take over operation of the Sabres for a time until a new owner was found.
Thankfully, Rigas and his son are in federal jail, but tonight the NHL is on death watch because the league and the owners did not have the money and the high-powered Broadcast TV contract to survive.
Wonder how long it will be before more NHL teams, as well as the league itself, goes into bankruptcy.
Looks like Snow Sheveling will replace Hockey as Canada's National Pastime, eh!
