Read what I said. The claim that there were people ‘concerned’ about the existing format was not a quote, it was not attributed, and it may very well have been made up. The entire sentence was weasel-worded on purpose to insinuate that there was a source without ever naming one. That's bad journalism.
Quote what he said, because I'm not shelling out money I can't afford to get through that paywall.
What I have seen from LeBrun is that the general managers raised the issue at their meeting in March. They are not the Board of Governors, they do not speak for the owners, and Bettman does not answer to them.
You have yet to substantiate your claim that it is not the Board of Governors' call.

Well if the rules that govern the NHL I quoted that clearly shows it is the commissioners call doesn't convince you nothing will.
