Why she's called "The Better Half?"

Well, at least Caps fans might have an opinion, if you read on . . .

"[Michael] Nylander apparently left for the same reason Chris Pronger skipped town. 'He wanted to come but his wife was uncertain,' [Kevin] Lowe confessed.

"By Lowe's numbers, the Edmonton hockey wife discount now stands at a record $2.5 million - the difference between what the Oilers were offering and what Nylander signed for. What gives?"

Thanks, Mrs. Nylander.
