pun intended! I say this both in terms of the return Buffalo received and also that he has another 4.5 years left on his eight-year contract at $10 million AAV. Vegas ROBBED Buffalo in that Eichel trade if he can bounce back. I think there was one other reason why some fans show disdain for Gary Bettman that I’ll add to your list he’s (NYC) Jewish and there’s still too much anti-Semitic ignorance and rhetoric in the hockey world, I suspect.
Hopefully it is someone more progressive akin to the hockey version of Adam Silver (NBA commissioner) who really seems to get it. Thanks for using your voice in a positive manner to force some long overdue change in the league, including the suggestion that it is time for Bettman to find his replacement and step aside. Bruce is back, and he still doesn’t like William Nylander. But maybe there are too many Debbie Downers out there, writes another. A minister no longer has faith in the Leafs. So this week’s Mailbag might be a bit heavy. The Jets’ Kevin Cheveldayoff was better “theatre,” but that’s not really what it’s all about. Gary Bettman’s performance was shameful when dealing with Kyle Beach. As the old saying in the newspaper biz goes: “Get me rewrite.”Īnyway, happy to have a little fun at the top of the Mailbag. For 59 minutes the theme was “Leafs lose, squander their chances.” Then along come Tavares and Nylander. But the game is 60 minutes, if not longer. I mean, they were terrible in the first period, especially on that five-on-three. then wrote another letter, putting it succinctly: “Please disregard my last letter.” John Tavares tied it with 42 seconds to go. It was a heartfelt letter that described everything he thought was wrong with the team.You know: soft passes, idiotic mistakes, fire the GM.
