Please expand. What deeper troubles? Record setting revenues? Record setting TV deals? People talk about all these issues with the NHL when the reality is the league as a whole is incredibly healthy. There are a few franchises that are struggling, although much of that has to do with the greater economic climate, but in general the NHL is leaps and bounds ahead of where it was just a few years ago.
