By now hockey fans know that as these collective bargaining talks - few as they are - go on, Commissioner Gary Bettman is the voice of
the National Hockey League. He is the
head negotiator for the league, he is the man at the microphone at the après-talk
press conferences.
But what about the voices that speak to the
Commissioner? Oh, we are not talking
about Deputy Commissioner Bill Daly or Philadelphia Flyer owner Ed Snider. We are talking about the voice in the
Commissioner’s own head. The one that
whispers to him as the questions are being asked, the one that cues him on the
things he can think but never say.
Well, we are not “The Peerless” for nothing. Using cutting-edge state-of-the-art
technology fresh off the drawing boards of the Defense Advanced Research Projects
Agency we were able to peer deep into the subconscious of the Commissioner, and
we can bring to you what he really thinks when he is dutifully addressing the
press…
