Here is the list we started off with when in the beginning days of this site. Please add to it!!

 An astute board of governors should relieve Mr. Bettman of his duties for several reasons:

10. He wants hockey played where no ice has ever been found.
9. He’s changed uniforms so they look bad on fans.
8. He signed a tv contract with the worst network.
7. He’s screwed up the rules so much that new and old fans alike are
bored with the game.
6. He watered down the league with the salary cap.
5. He moved the All-Star game to wednesday so nobody would watch it.
4. He destroyed decades old rivalries.
3. He stopped the sport for a whole year.
2. He took fighting out of hockey.
AND the number one reason why he should be fired:

1. He came from the NBA

8. He signed a tv contract with the worst network.
 On top of that, he won’t let Rocky Wirtz put the WGN Chicago games on WGN America. The NHL could really use a team like the Blackhawks to broadcast nationwide. Like the CHicago Cubs have been for the last 30+ years.

#4, Screwed up Decades old Rivalries.

 I hate to say it, but I wish Nashville would move; this would allow the Maple Leafs to Potentially be placed back where it should be (with Chi-Town and Motown).

Hi all…new here and thought Id post my 2 cents (CDN).

 1.He hates Canada!! (and northern US states as well..from what it looks like) plain and simple.Apparently he has this rule he keeps talking about as to why the Coyotes (and last year it was the Predators) cannot be moved but he never actually says what the rule is.Where was this rule when the Jets,Nordiques and the Whalers were in trouble.The NHL didnt give 2 sh*ts about those teams being relocated,but for some reason now the league is all gung-ho about saving these sunbelt teams that have no business being where they are.Im sorry to the actual hockey fans in these cities but there arent enough of you in Phoenix,Nashville,Florida etc.We here in Winnipeg are die-hard to the grave hockey fans but we lost our team without a fight because the league never once stepped in to help like they are now.Let Balsillie buy a damn team and bring them home to Canada where they belong.

2. He has no respect for the fans or the players of the NHL….crappy officiating…failure to look at the NHL as a sport that has fans,all he sees is dollar signs and thats the wrong way to run a league like the NHL.Thats right Mr.Bettman its the NHL not the NBA.So do us all a favour and leave…like right now!!!

 Ok Ok I try my very hardest to sit and watch a full game of hockey now but its getting increasingly harder. Even with a case a molson canadian. Eliminating fighting and giving suspensions for the stupidest shit nowadays has really put hockey 6 feet under, where bettman would be if i ever saw him publicly. I believe the coyotes should no doubt be moved to winnipeg where the fan base is still huge for the jets and there isint even a team. Balsillie (or however the name is spelt) obviously told bettman hes not interested in having a gay relationship, and bettmans still crying about it, years later. Please Jim, give Gary 1 kiss. Its worth having the jets back.
