The beginning of February tomorrow marks the 32nd record-breaking year of Gary Bettman as NHL Commissioner.
No other pro sports leader could make that statement; nor ever will. But Bettman's marvelous achievement did not happen by accident.
When Bettman took over on February 1, 1993, he inherited a holy mess which was neither easily nor quickly fixed. But they were and the result is an NHL that never has been healthier.
