from Don Brennan of the Ottawa Sun,

The NHL must be very happy about this miraculous Golden Knights season that has put a first-year team into the Stanley Cup final.

The people in and around Las Vegas are now hooked on the game.

Seattle must be licking its chops.

But what about the owners of 30 other teams? How are they feeling? Are they still counting their cut from the expansion fee, or are they starting to get upset with the format that stocked the Vegas team?...

The Vegas success makes owners look greedy and uncaring about what should matter most to them.

Shouldn’t you have to pay your dues, or is the going rate for a championship now set at a half billion dollars?
