Fehr vs. Bettman has to be the biggest board-room mismatch in the history of union labor.
There may not be a stoppage simply because Bettman will just get his ass kicked up and down the hall by Fehr.
I wouldn’t be surprised if it gets Bettman (finally) fired, either. Like, very soon.
St. Louis Game Time . . . I need another beer.
And I can also write things in 140 characters or fewer.
Oh, God, please.
He’s almost hit the point of “dictator for life,” hasn’t he?

I don't know...
If the “Like A Bettman” video taught me one thing, it’s that Gary Bettman likes to find Red Wings fans and punch their babies. Hopefully Donald Fehr looks nothing like a Red Wings fan’s baby. If he doesn’t then he’ll win. If he does, then we’ll have a lockout.
Seriously, though, I’d just like them to negotiate a CBA that doesn’t make your head hurt when you read the table of contents. That’d be nice.

I think that the health care bill was easier to read.

I think the healthcare bill also had something in it about punching Red Wings fans' babies...
Something about not being able to do it anymore because of Detroit’s rapidly declining population or something.
Also, the Pinball Ninja and I are not related. Though that would be cool. He puts the fun back into pinball machines, whereas I put the “fun” in “quarterly financial disclosure reporting.”

With Fehr in.....We as fans....
ARE FUCKED!!!!!
I still maintain Vladimir Konstantinov got what he deserved...If you can't handle that then kiss my ass......
"I've got a bad feeling about this..."
Wait a second...The Avs new owner can't be...
There can’t be another “Josh Kroenke”, can there? The same one I saw play basketball, multiple times, for Rock Bridge and then Mizzou? The same one a few of my older friends went to both with, regularly bought drinks for and swear is a great guy?
If so…I think a few comps might be in the works.
It's a funny name.
your friends bought drinks for josh kroenke?
your friends must be loaded.

INCONCIEVABLE!

It's easy to buy drinks for someone when you're in a college town and there's specials everywhere you look
Also you keep using that word. I do not believe it means what you think it means.

The real question, though, is this:
Once Stan Kroenke turns over the Avs to Josh, can he then buy out TowerBrook’s portion of the Blues?
And what would Bill Laurie’s face look like if Kroenke money backed the Blues to a Cup?
He obviously can't do this that's
why he has to ‘sell’ the Avs and Nuggets.
Wouldn’t it be nice to inherit this with your parents still alive and only mid 20’s
Hockey players wear numbers because you can't always identify the body with dental records.
It is the sweet, simple things of life which are the real ones after all. Laura Ingalls Wilder
well if stan doesnt own the avs and nuggs
technically, he could by the blues. you can own teams in the same market, just not different markets. josh couldnt buy the blues, but stan (or his wife) could.
