Revenues have gone from $2B to $3B since the lockout.He's making them money I guess.
Those revenue have come from Montreal, Toronto, Detroit, New York, Chicago, Boston all the traditional hockey Markets. Teams like Atlanta and Pheonix are in the red. http://www.marketing-jive.com/2010/10/nhl-team-worth-2010-list-of-nhl-team.html Toronto is the franchise that earns the most revenue for the NHL and it's about time they get rewarded by winning the cup.Revenues have gone from $2B to $3B since the lockout.
He does for the league what Richard Peddie does for the Leafs. Makes money without improving the product.

Yes, is the infinite wisdom of the morons known as owners, Bettman's contract has been extended for 5 years.

I apologize for placing this thread in the lounge and not the sports discussion. Honest mistake, I'll try not to do it again.
Funny that Oakville was mentioned. There soccer program is the 2nd largest in North America. San Diego's program is the largest.
Along with Air Canada, Via Rail has sent a letter to the NHL as well.
Revenues went up 50% for the whole league.the only reason revenues are up is the strengthening of the loonie.........no thanks to Bettman's mismanagement.
Let's hope Bob Probert's widow and kids are enjoying the benefit.Since then revenues have increased 50% even with the recession. The players also benefit from that.
I was only thinking about current players contracts and the revenue sharing. No idea how current revenues impact pensions.Let's hope Bob Probert's widow and kids are enjoying the benefit.
