The game is good, the fans have embraced it, business is good. That's because of what we were able to do with the collective-bargaining agreement.

In addition to the rule changes, we went out of our way with the players association to make the attitude and environment around the NHL different than in the past.

We've been able to deliver, to make fans feel closer. I can't even estimate how important [the fan-friendly measures] have been to our re-launch.

We hope to recover [in the corporate sponsorship area] at both the club and league level. It has a lot to do with the timing of when we [came to terms on the new collective-bargaining agreement]. Companies had to plan their budget, and they didn't know if we'd be playing [this season].

[Pound] unfairly tainted our athletes. In our view, his comments were unfair and not accurate.

While betting on football or other sports may be the pervasive issue, it in no way justifies poor judgment or otherwise alleged inappropriate conduct. We will take this issue very seriously and will monitor the proceedings closely.

In a lot of respects, the litigation was the sole remaining vestige of a year-long labor dispute that was difficult for us and for our fans. It was time to turn the page and move on.

We know Wayne very well. We have no reason to doubt what he says.

From the league's perspective, we have put into place a program this year and we think it's going to be a very effective program. Luckily, we don't have a problem with doping in our sport.

Obviously injuries are an issue and a concern of our clubs. Location of the Olympics plays into that, the significant time difference we had in Nagano (for the '98 Games) was a challenge and it led into a longer break than we would have otherwise liked. There are a number of issues that you deal with as you make these decisions each time around, and probably the most significant is our experience here and whether players are getting hurt.

The time window for the Penguins to get financing on a new arena is short. I believe the city of Pittsburgh deserves to have the Penguins, but the Penguins also need a new building and they've needed a new one for years.

They have the oldest arena in the league, and it doesn't provide the revenues that team needs to stay competitive. It needs to resolve itself in the next couple of months, otherwise they're going to have to look at options.

They need to start moving forward in Pittsburgh.

We would have enormous concern about any betting on NHL games, but I can safely say there is no evidence brought to our attention in conversations with the prosecutors and the New Jersey police. There is no evidence the integrity of any NHL games was at stake.

It's a great tournament when we have it. Speaking for the NHL clubs, we would like to have another World Cup tournament and make it a regular event. But, obviously, we need the player participation agreement on that point.
