Exactly the way Betman planned it.

Pittsburgh had pretty good odds actually (as did the Flames).
But I suspect some funny business there was well. Drafting Crosby essentially got them the support for the arena that Bettman was so hands-on in fighting for. It was like the knockout punch. It was just so convenient that I can't help but wonder if the fix was in.
