Featured Match: MSG vs. NHL

From The Globe and Mail Blogs (globeandmail.com):

Headline: "Duhatscek: A titillating story"

by Eric Duhatschek, 19/06/08 at 2:25 PM EDT

The story is titillating on the most important level of all: How often does a pro sports league, in this case, the NHL, threaten to boot out one of its founding and most valuable franchises – the New York Rangers? OK, that might constitute a worst-case scenario – fines and suspension are more likely – but not since the days when Al Davis and the Oakland Raiders went to war with the NFL have relationships soured so badly between a team and a league.
