NHLPA Press Conference

[BDAClub]

Anyone check it out Goodenow looks like he ate a lemon trying to say all the right things and "trying" to be supportive of the deal.

Betteman that little midget American cocksucker who's never played the game.....I can't stand the fact that he has anything to do with OUR game......

nothing like hockey

I knew there had to be one topic hotter than the women here!

Bettman may be a troll - but it is Goodenow that I blame for this whole fukking mess. If "no cap" Bob had believed the owners about how broke these teams were in the first place and accepted the cap on behalf of the greedy motherfucker players, this never would have happened. That stubborn piece of shit is the reason we lost a season - him and the dumbass players. Guys - you get pad millions to shoot a puck - if you somehow think this is unfair, quit and get a real job you overpaid cocksucking morons. IMnotsoHO

I agree there are alot of broke teams, and there are teams in markets....all in the USA that don't give a shit about hockey.......you can chalk that up to piss poor marketing, expansion that watered down the talent so much that guys who should be in the AHL forever are now in the NHL. Betteman sits there so smugly as the guy steering the ship has spent 10 years turning people off the game reducing the talent level and helping the league lose 1.8 billion......Gretzky shouldn't coach Phoenix he should take Betteman's job and let Linden have Goodenow's....at least then we'd have people who know and give a shit about the game.

What he said in exactly the same words!

I wonder which of these morons can make 10% of their current salaries in the real world? Does anyoe believe for one second that Joe Sakic can make $900k/yr, or Bertuzzi $750k ?

Bettmen, Linden, Goodenow....all should be canned. If they had any balls they would resign. They didn't get the deal done and we lost a season of hockey and someone should pay.

I don't care whos a nice guy.
I don't care that the way things turned out was there fault or not. What happened to pro hockey in North America was atrocious.


Goodenow makes $2.5 million per season?????? For what?? He tried to sell to the players his ideas and failed. 'Thanks for coming out' Goodenow.

Bettmen that sawed-off little bastard never should have been hired in the first place. Why are they holding the lottery pick behind closed doors Bettmen? Can we call that a fix? Who here thinks it going to NY or Chicago? Bettmen your a shrew 'thanks for coming out.'

Linden you caved. You sold to hockey players that respect you a shitty deal. 'Thanks for coming out.'

Agree to disagree.

Trevor Linden was one of the only involved during the whole dispute that tried to keep both sides talking.

It is unfair to rag on #16.

The players are millionaires, the owners are billionaires. The owners were bound to win as sports is not their principal business, unlike the players.
