Who’s goint to replace Garry Bettman after he retire?

Which candidates are best for job?

Bill Daly is the most obvious internal candidate, though it wouldn't surprise me if they went with someone else for the sake of fresh blood.

Two weeks ago Gary was asked when he plans to retire. Without hesitation wants to stick around as long as owners want him. The day will come for sure but for now mind remains very sharp. Hopefully those occasional shakes are not much of a concern.

Daly will almost certainly take the helm after the 21/22 season

Bill Daly would be a good choice. What about John Collins? He left in 2015 and was the NHL COO then was senior vice president. He was in part responsible for the NBC and Sportsnet negotiation and focusing on making the NHL more of a national brand in the US. The league doubled in revenue from 2 to 4 billion while he was there. Gary Bettman gave him a lot of credit for the games growth. I always thought he was well spoken and came across well in selling the league. Of course Bill Daly is also will spoken has longevity and loyalty going for him.
