David Stern on Gary Bettman’s Hall of Fame induction: ‘I’m like a proud uncle’
TORONTO — David Stern tries to connect with Gary Bettman by phone about once a week. Even he has a tough time keeping track of the NHL commissioner’s schedule.
“I called him one day and he was in Helsinki,” Stern said. “The next day he was someplace else.
“He’s a tireless worker.”
If the two men happen to speak Monday, Bettman will be in Toronto getting ready for his induction into the Hockey Hall of Fame.
