PROFILE |
 |
The National Hockey League (NHL) is the coolest game on earth -- literally. It has seen its revenue increase steadily in the 1990s, benefiting from rule changes designed to make for more offensive-minded games. Thirty teams in the US and Canada are geographically aligned into the Eastern Conference (Atlantic, Northeast, and Southeast divisions) and Western Conference (Central, Northwest, and Pacific). Two expansion teams started play in the 2000-01 season (Columbus Blue Jackets, Minnesota Wild), which also began a new $600 million TV deal with ABC and ESPN secured by commissioner Gary Bettman. Founded in 1917, the NHL also oversees seven minor and semi-pro hockey leagues.
