Commissioner Gary Bettman met some of the top leaders in the Canadian business community at The Business Lecture Series presented by the Speakers Forum at The National Club in Toronto, a downtown institution founded in 1874. Bettman met the hockey issues of the day head-on in a 20-minute speech that was followed by 20 minutes of interaction with the audience.
In each forum, he said the NHL is a vibrant business, projected to experience real economic growth somewhere in the five percent range this season. Bettman also acknowledged the NHL is not immune to the challenges affecting the global economic climate.
