Not a flattering picture of the NHL commissioner, almost certainly selected with purpose.

As for the Olympics, the NHL is going.  For some demented reason, Bettman is using this to try and squeeze some concessions out of the NHLPA related to the contract.  This is what partisans such as Bettman does.  Problem is, if this gambit don't work, he will then hafta come up with some way out of the corner into which he has painted himself so effectively.

Takes a really special guy to mess things up so magnificently, but Bettman has never let us down in the past, and I expect no less from him on this matter.

Well done, Mr. Bettman.  Encore, encore!
