the "Boots" Del Biaggio story inspires, but there's this
Watergate-like notion floating around the media that if this trail of inept vetting goes all the way up to Gary Bettman's ...

Canadian hockey fans see Gary Bettman differently than
the folks who pay his salary, which should come
as no surprise. Not that they have always seen him the same way themselves. His arrival in the job as NHL commissioner was greeted as another ...
Is this the beginning of the end for
Gary Bettman's reign as commissioner?
So what's the difference between Jim Balsillie and
William (Boots) Del Biaggio? Well, Balsillie seems to actually
have the money that everyone assumes he does, thanks to the success of those addictive BlackBerrys. Unlike Boots, he isn't under ...
If you're Gary Bettman, the actions of Russia's
Continental Hockey League could be the source of numerous
headaches going forward.
Remember Gary Bettman's brilliant salary-cap plan that was
going to save the NHL? Al Strachan is here
to tell you it stinks.
He's got owners under indictment. He's got a
TV deal with a U.S. cable network that no
one watches. He's got fading defencemen signed to six-year contracts, 14-goal scorers making $4 million a season and goaltenders going for $12 million a ...
OTTAWA - This threat to take the Rangers
away from Jim Dolan isn't about legalities. This isn't
even about the Garden suing the NHL. Not really. Rather, this is about Dolan and the Garden challenging the despotic reign of Gary Bettman just the way...
Rick Westhead E ven the smug man in
charge at NHL headquarters would surely agree last week
was an especially bad one. As he addressed the league's board of governors in New York, Gary Bettman admitted he had no clue that two of his closest NHL ...
From Dan Wood of the Orange County Register:
Ducks co-owner Henry Samueli has been suspended indefinitely from
any involvement with the team and the NHL, commissioner Gary Bettman announced Tuesday. Samueli, co-founder of Irvine-based Broadcom Corp., pleaded guilty Monday to one count of lying to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission about his role in the backdating of employee stock ...
The NHL ownership scandals continue; and it’s beyond
Boots Del Baggio and his shady tactics for buying
the Nashville Predators . . . Anaheim Ducks owner Henry Samueli has pleaded guilty to lying to federal authorities. Gary Bettman seemed unperturbed:
We here at MYFO try rarely to be
serious about things. We bring the funny. But there
are times, such as now, where we stare at a piece of news and can find no humorous slant to take on it, because it’s just infuriating. This summer, we will be ...
For the fourth straight year, the NHL's salary
cap is on the rise. This is obviously such
a great system right? Right? American teams struggle as owners are busted for fraud or file for bankruptcy because their team can't sell tickets. Meanwhile hockey thrives in Canada as usual and because of high Canadian revenues, it drives up the salary cap. Yet another wonderful idea from Gary Bettman ...
Rick Westhead Sports business columnist The NHL indefinitely
suspended Ducks owner Henry Samueli yesterday after he pleaded
guilty to lying to U.S. securities regulators, as newly-filed court documents raise more questions about the thoroughness of ...
TSN.ca reports that the Anaheim Mighty Ducks placed
Todd Bertuzzi on waivers today with the ultimate intention
of buying out the remaining year of the two-year, eight-million-dollar contract he signed last summer. It’s difficult to stomach one of the NHL’s true class acts being without a home, but I imagine some team direly in need of a once-dominant power forward with crippled ...
Rafael Nadal: a whimpering, tennis world splicing of
Petr Sykora and Ed Hochuli ? I don't consider
myself a tennis fan, but my friend and I were lucky to stumble upon today's Wimbledon final where Nadal finally bested Federer in the longest Wimbledon final ever . The ridiculously close match made me think of those unforgettable marathon OT games in the NHL playoffs. It compels me to say ...
