Things are going great for the NHL from a business perspective. Dylan Remick Jersey . How great will be revealed in the next couple of days at the board of governors meeting in Pebble Beach, Calif. The board is expected to approve the leagues new television deal with Rogers and get briefed on the approximate salary cap for next season. The $5.2-billion, 12-year deal the NHL struck with Rogers for exclusive national TV rights in Canada needs approval from the board of governors before it goes into effect for next season. Given the financial windfall it represents for the league, theres no real danger that it doesnt pass. Revenue from that contract wont factor in until next year, but commissioner Gary Bettman said last month in Toronto that "its fair to say" the NHL is over the US$3.3-billion mark from the last full season. "The preliminary data, and its preliminary, looks strong," Bettman said in mid-November. Chief operating officer John Collins recently made reference to the NHL being a $4-billion business. Even if thats a number the league hits in the near future, the trend for the salary cap is upward - and fast. The board of governors will get the update on the 2014-15 salary cap, which will be a substantial raise from the $64.3 million limit this season. That number is expected to be around $70 million, which means the cap gets to its pre-lockout level in the second full season after the work stoppage. Future international competition, such as the revival of the World Cup of Hockey, could get some discussion, but that is an issue that needs to be negotiated with the Players Association. The NHLs new alignment seems to fit 32 teams better than 30 at some point, but Bettman has said there are no immediate plans for expansion. "I dont envision right now going through a formal expansion process," he said. "We get expressions of interest all the time. Those are informal conversations that we have, but in terms of a formal bid process, Im not focused on doing anything like that right now." Other items expected to be on the agenda were outlined by TSN Hockey Insider Pierre LeBrun on ESPN.com on Sunday. They include: A briefing on potential rule changes and disciplinary procedure from Colin Campbell, Brendan Shanahan and Stephen Walkom, an update on legal matters including the recent lawsuit filed by over 200 ex-players, an update on the 2014 Sochi Olympics as well as an update on the Leagues relationship with outside hockey organizations such as USA Hockey, the Canadian Hockey League and the International Ice Hockey Federation. The board is set to meet Monday and Tuesday. Aaron Kovar Sounders Jersey . -- Frederik Gauthier scored twice and tacked on an assist as the Rimouski Oceanic extended their win streak to 11 games by defeating the visiting Rouyn-Noranda Huskies 5-2 on Saturday in Quebec Major Junior Hockey League action. Osvaldo Alonso Jersey .com) - The Chicago White Sox and outfielder Melky Cabrera have reportedly agreed to a three-year contract. http://www.seattlesoundersteamshop.com/Authentic-Gonzalo-Pineda-Seattle-Sounders-Jersey/ . -- Tri-Citys Brendan Shinnimin has scored a lot of goals this season, but none bigger than the game-winner Wednesday night in Game 7 against the Spokane Chiefs.LOS ANGELES -- On a night when point guard Chris Paul didnt have his usual numbers, Caron Butler and Chauncey Billups were there to help complement Blake Griffins usual solid effort. Griffin had 22 points and 14 rebounds, Butler scored 20 points against the team he suffered a season-ending injury against last January, and the Clippers beat the severely undermanned Milwaukee Bucks 92-86 on Saturday night. "I love it," said Billups, who scored 19 points. "I love it because your stars dont have to be superstars every night. They can lean on other guys when its not going so well." The chippy game resulted in a combined 54 fouls, including a flagrant 1 against Milwaukees Larry Sanders for his hard takedown of Butler on an attempted layup with 1:38 left in the third quarter. Paul finished with nine points and seven assists. "We have so many scorers and so many weapons that even if the ball doesnt go in sometimes, well still be able to score points," Griffin said. "As good as our new guys are, thats what makes that transition easier. Guys like Chauncey and Caron, because of how good they are and how hard they work and how much they love the game, it just flows a little bit better than it would otherwise." The last time Butler played against the Bucks, on New Years Day 2011 with Dallas, he ruptured a tendon in his right knee while going for an offensive rebound at Milwaukee. He underwent surgery and missed the rest of the Mavericks championship season, then signed with the Clippers as a free agent. "Hes highly motivated, coming off that injury, and hes going to have a great year," Billups said. "I dont know if people forgot, but Caron has been one of the best small forwards in the game in the last seven, eight, nine years. He probably flew under the radar because he didnt play much last year. But we know about him, and he wont be a secret for long." Brandon Jennings scored 21 points and had seven assists for the Bucks, who have lost four straight. They played their third in a row without centre Andrew Bogut, who is in Australia attending to personal matters with his family. Teammate Luc Mbah a Moute, who helped UCLA reach the Final Four in 2008, missed his third in a row because of tendinitis in his right knee. In addition, swingman Mike Dunleavy Jr. was sidelined by a groin problem, reserve guard Beno Udrih also sat out with an injured left shoulder, and reserve forward Jon Brockman left the game for good midway through the second quarter because of a bruised left eye. Drew Gooden again started in Boguts place, contributing 18 points and 13 rebounds in 29 minutes. The Bucks are off to their first 0-5 start on the road sincee 2004-05, when they dropped their first seven. Charlie Lyon Jersey. . "We need somebody to step up and knock down shots for us," said forward Stephen Jackson, who was 4 for 18. "It has been difficult on this trip, for sure. We havent gotten anybody with any consistency knocking down shots. Were not playing a very efficient game right now." Paul took a breather after getting his fourth foul with 2:17 left in the third quarter and Los Angeles leading 65-59. He was replaced by Randy Foye, who had played only six minutes to that point despite his 14-point fourth quarter in Wednesdays 117-89 win over Houston. The Clippers still had a four-point lead when Paul reported back in with 9:55 remaining, and they stayed in front the rest of the way. Paul hit a 20-footer with 2:23 remaining to help clinch it. "I never go into a game saying Im going to get 15 or 20 points. Im just going to take whatever the defence gives me," Paul said. "Tonight Chauncey got it going -- and Blake, obviously. Thats how its going to be with this team all season long. Youve got to win games like this. When its all said and done, its not about the stats. Its about the won and lost columns." Milwaukee led 40-38 at halftime despite shooting 35 per cent. The Clippers took charge in the third quarter with a 14-2 run that gave them their biggest lead, 63-50, with 4:48 left in the period. "Defensively, we just have so much room for improvement," Griffin said. "We played poorly on defence tonight, and luckily they missed some shots." The three-point shooting was poor at both ends of the court. The Clippers missed their first nine attempts -- all in the first half -- and finished 4 for 19. The Bucks were 6 for 20 after missing 10 of their first 12 from behind the arc. Forward Reggie Evans grabbed six rebounds in his Clippers debut after being sidelined for the first five games of the season because of a sprained right foot. The nine-year veteran averaged a career-high 11.5 rebounds in 30 games with Toronto last season. The Bucks shrugged off a seven-point deficit and took their first lead 38 seconds into the second quarter on a layup by Jennings that put them ahead 19-17. Clippers reserve guard Ryan Gomes picked up three fouls in his first seven minutes on the floor and was back on the bench with 10:18 left in the half. NOTES: This was the teams only meeting this season due to the reconfigured 66-game schedule caused by the lockout. ... Paul extended his streak to 15 consecutive games with at least one steal when he stripped the ball from Gooden with 4:16 left in the second quarter. ... The Clippers had 14 turnovers against a Bucks defence that had forced an average of 19.2 over their first six games. cheap jerseys cheap jerseys cheap nfl jerseys Ray Ban Outlet Michael Kors Outlet Michael Kors Sale Cheap Michael Kors ' ' '
