Lol what? All I'm saying is that the players in the NHL have earned their jobs, and there's no reason to just take those jobs away from them to fit some quota of teams, when things are fine as they are.
Things are not fine as they are. The product on the ice league wide is more watered down and unexciting as ever before. Which is due directly to Bettman's unnecessary expansion of more teams than the talent level in the league could support.
