from Don Brennan of the Ottawa Citizen,

The NHL’s little bossman deserves to be heckled mercilessly going forward — yes, even more so than he is now — if his insistence on hitting a home run for the owners in the current collective bargaining agreement negotiations leads to yet another work stoppage. In doing what he might think is best for the game, Bettman is causing all sorts of damage from a fan’s perspective. He could also be ending the career of the greatest player in Senators history.

And that just might be enough for him to nudge past Alexei Yashin and Dany Heatley as the most-despised individual to set foot in Scotiabank Place.
