Bettman is insane. I could maybe see a development league in europe, but not NHL expansion. Toronto doesnt even want to travel to California fer crissakes.
"It has an impact on the momentum of the season and the benefits we get tend to be greater when the Olympics are in North America than when they're in distant time zones."
So what benefits did the Kings/Ducks get out of playing in London? What's the difference?
It's a bad idea considering how difficult the travel is already. Maybe if you cut it down to 60 games a year and leave more times between games to recoup/travel it would work. The NHL has to do something to differentiate itself, and being the first league to have teams on two continents would do it, but unless someone comes up with teleporters...
the Olympics are a strain, but traveling to Europe on a regular basis isn't?
Only if every single Winter Olympics took place in North America.
Bettman is a ****ing clown. This expansion bull**** needs to stop. Ask Bettman how well his boy's expansion of the NBA in Canada went. THAT'S how well the NHL expanding outside of NA will go.
