   Butthead is the worst commissioner of all time in all sports. Tracking scores all the time eh? Carrying a rulebook eh? Has that rulebook changed to allow screwing over teams in the playoffs? Among recent examples, In game 3 between San Jose vs Dallas, Turco CLEARLY DOESN’T freeze the puck and San Jose puts the puck in the net and the referees blow the damned whistle, Detroit vs Colorado same night, someone on Detroit hooks down I believe it was Andrew Brunette. What did the referees call… not a friggin thing. Montreal getting penalty after penalty against Philadelphia. Speaking of Philadelphia, the Flyers beat the Capitals on a powerplay because of a clear dive in OT, and the guy falling down was barely touched and the dumbshit referees call a penalty. The referees you’d think would be fined but dumbass Bettman doesn’t even discipline the referees for shit. And last but not least, my Ottawa Senators throughout the 2nd half of the season and the first round of the playoffs, get penalty after penalty called on them, and their opponents got away with so much shit which mad this Sens fan very ANGRY. By the way, the 2008 NHL Entry Draft is going to be at Scotiabank Place in my hometown of Ottawa. Anyone want to take any bets on how much shit will be thrown in the direction of Ding Dong on draft night?

   sabresownurlives,

   Hey buddy, I agree with everything you said ‘cept dickweed wouldn’t know what to do with all that ice. Now, put ‘im ’round the equator somewheres and I’m sure he’d feel right at home; ’specially with a basketball court close by. See, wiener-breath don’t understand hockey; matter of fact, he don’t understand much at all. When ya ain’t got nothin’ packed between the ears, it’s kinda hard to do anything right. Shoot, I almost feel sorry for the dumb shit. NAH!!! Owners oughta drop him like third period French.

   yer bud,
   Biscuit

   Ahhh no thanks! We dont want him here in Australia either.

   And as for your comments on Aussie hockey knowledge….if you are going to attack Bettman for knowing fuck all about how to run the NHL, then make sure you know that Australia has been World Champion and Olympic Champion for several years in field hockey. So i think we may know what a hockey stick looks like.

   We also have a Ice Hockey league which is still in its infancy. As crap as our league is in Australia, I still wouldnt want him to run it!!!

   When you write a blog where you don’t even have the decency to address someone by their proper name, how can you expect to be taken seriously?
   This may come as a surprise to some but Gary works for the owners not the fans. They will decide how good of a job he is doing. Judging from revenues and franchise values, I would say he is doing great.

   Revenues and Franchise values? You’re obviously a Pens! Ask the teams in the south if theyre still struggling…even with all the assistance Bettman’s NHL throw at them, they still cant make ends meet and the rest of the NHL should have to suffer for it? Not every team can suck as bad as the Pens did for years and years in order to nab all the top prospects.
   Crosby has something he needs you to polish, so please leave.

   Exactly. This bull from Bettman has been going on for over 15 years. Now that the Democrats are taking over the White House in January will somebody call the FBI if an investigation hasn’t started already? Okay, calling the FBI might not do much but maybe something will happen if the media in Canada, traditional hockey markets in the United States and European countries spend time studying and exposing what Bettman and his cronies have been doing for the last 16 years: Ruining the NHL and committing fraud… case in point the Nashville deal, Jim Balsillie being royally screwed by Bettman (twice) and the subsequent purchase of the Minnesota Wild by… former Nashviile Predators owner Craig Leipoid. These are not creative sales brokering practices. All these examples are instances of blatant fraud which need to be investigated and must be dealt with real soon. What Bettman and his cronies have done for over a decade and a half should not be allowed to continue under any circumstances.

   If the Florida Panthers end up making the playoffs this year, hopefully their home games are played in a half empty building. No southern cities (with the exception of Dallas) should have NHL teams… PERIOD
