Balsillie Upsets Poor NHL Snowflakes

From The National Post:
Balsillie puts Bettman to the doofus test
Balsillie's strategy is transparent. He intends to make an offer so enticing that only a true doofus could refuse it. Clearly this is another example of Balsillie's lack of integrity and unsuitability as an owner of the NHL, which prefers crooks, charlatans and windbags, who have limited understanding of the game and can thus be counted on to treat Bettman like he knows what he's doing.
Is this the beginning of the end of the NHL? Just askin'.

Update: Thursday's scheduled auction for the bankrupt Phoenix Coyotes has come down to two bidders: an eager Jim Balsillie versus a reluctant National Hockey League.
