Well Stern and Selig are good commissioners for their respective leagues. Goodall seems okay to me as the NFL is doing record revenue. Bettman is by far the worst of them!

If Gary Bettman weren't commissioner, the NHL commissioner would suspend him indefinitely for conduct detrimental to the game of hockey.

-Supported criminal William Del Biaggio as an owner, but rebuffed a respected businessman in Jim Balsille for not wanting to "play by his rules"
-Expanded the NHL into markets where they have done nothing but lose money since day 1.
-Has three lockouts during his tenure, costing the league 2 seasons worth of hockey.
