The InstigatorHow Gary Bettman Remade the NHL and Changed the Game ForeverJonathon Gatehouse

Contributor BioJonathon Gatehouse is a senior correspondent for Maclean’s weekly magazine and was formerly areporter for the National Post and Montreal’s Gazette. He lives in Toronto, Ontario.

SummaryTwo decades of lockouts, soaring ticket prices, and on-ice tinkering have convinced many hard-corefans that the NHL’s long-time commissioner Gary Bettman is the devil in disguise, but this bookexamines his motivations, peels back his often prickly demeanor, and explains how he manages tolead, confound, and keep order. It details the unlikely ascension of a fatherless Jewish kid fromLong Island—who never played hockey and can barely skate—to the sport’s biggest job. Theseven-fold increase in gross revenue during Bettman’s 20-year tenure as NHL commissioner makeshim a business success story, and on his watch, professional hockey has also expanded far beyondits regional strongholds. By taming the NHL’s famously fractious owners, all but busting its players’union, and enforcing a lawyerly discipline even on trash talk, Bettman has become a figure of almostunrivaled power in the business of sports, and this biography delves into how his influence shapesrival leagues in other countries, dictates the schedule of the Olympic Winter Games, and spills ontothe ice itself.
