David Pagnotta: NHL commissioner Gary Bettman on outdoor games: “Our game is about our fans. Part of the attraction and allure to our outdoor games is the massive crowds… I think these events are enhanced with the energy and excitement that our games get from having so many of our fans at these games.”
