According to SportsBusiness Journal's Christopher Botta, NHL commissioner Gary Bettman's compensation did not take a hit due to the six-month-long owners' lockout in 2012. Instead, Botta reports that Bettman received a modest raise leading up to the lockout:
NHL Commissioner Gary Bettman’s salary and benefits climbed to more than $8 million for the 2011-12 season, the most recent full season prior to the 2012-13 lockout, according to the league’s newly available tax filing.
Bettman received more than $8.3 million in salary and benefits during the fiscal year ending June 30, 2012. His total compensation the previous year was $7.98 million.
