I could believe that tbh.
The discipline system in the NHL sucks, the current OT format is horrible, and the refs are inconsistent. These issues fall under the supervision of Bettman, but he hasn't done nearly enough to improve the game in respect to these aspects.
One thing I do find interesting though is this new green initiative the NHL is taking. I believe its the first of its kind in pro sports. - Gullzy
Summed up nicely (in particular - at least for me - the issue of quality refereeing, as well as the ridiculously inconsistent disciplinary system just underscores some of the mickey-mouse elements of the league, ones that need to be addressed forthwith, if the league wants to really be taken seriously
The really interesting thing, is you indicated there is a new green initiative. This would have been a great opportunity to earn good-will points from fans. However, I confess this is the first time I have even heard about it (is anyone other than Gullzy aware of this initiative?) . And I (and pretty much most of us here) follow hockey closely. so what does that say as concerns the casual fan and their level of involvement? Again, just another organizational blunder in a league that often seems to continue and even progress from a financial point of view, in spite of itself |

The NHL would be nowhere near what it is today if it wasn't for Bettman. - Yeti1181
The NHL is where it is today DESPITE Bettman. More like on the strength Canadian Dollar and Hockey fan.
The fact that a Canadian team hasn't won the Cup since Bettman has been running the league makes me want to mow him down in the street if I ever get him in my crosshairs.

Holy esoteric reference Batman! Even after googling him and reading his entire Wikipedia page, I still have no (frank)ing clue what you are talking about.
On the flip side, half the time I have no (frank)ing clue what you are rambling on about... |

Geeze, tell us how you really feel  and I wonder why my ex-girlfriends are still confined to various convalescent homes
In retrospect, I actually figured that might be a bit of an overly esoteric nugget of information (I'm also a bit of a film fan, so there are a few references/tidbits of info etc that might be off the mainstream).
Nonetheless, I thought that our esteemed gathering of brilliant hockey minds on Hockey Buzz Vancouver (collective IQ of 142 - but which of course would be much higher if we didn't include two or three "select" posters that bring down the average by 10-15 points - yes, that means myself as well of course  .
In any event, back to my original comment, go to Google and search for 'Assualt on Wall Street' (which was, incidentally, shot in Vancouver) - pretty much the last 3/4 of of which consists of people getting shot by high powered assault weapons and people just, well, getting shot
But the most violent one of his I've seen is "Rampage" which is, once again (surprise surprise) people getting shot by high high-powered assault weapons and, umm, people just getting shot. Alas, I digress....check em out at your discretion
P.S. hopes this sheds some light on my earlier post? |

I think with the popularity of the Seahawks and 49ers ,Vancouver would be a great option for the NFL. Toronto and MTL would follow.
I think the NFL will consider it as a three team expansion instead of a dying crowd in Buffalo. |

Bonino had one less point than Henrik last year. He was the only other player on this current Canuck team in the top 100 in scoring . Curious to see how he does this year with maybe more ice time. |
