NEW YORK -- NHL commissioner Gary Bettman doesn't believe Winnipeg Jets fans were being "sexist in the slightest" by comparing Anaheim Ducks forward Corey Perry to pop singer Katy Perry.

Bettman likens the chants to goalies being called "sieves." The commissioner was in Winnipeg on Monday for the chants during Game 3 of the first-round playoff series.
