NHL news...

Brendan Shanahan is replacing Colin Campbell,as dean of discipline,of NHL... his new title will be NHL senior vice-president of player safety,and hockey operations... Colin Campbell will remain senior vice president of NHL hockey operations... even though Shanahan played for the Red Wings,he also played for New Jersey Devils(twice),St. Louis Blues,Hartford Whalers,and New York Rangers... being the dean of supplemental discipline is a thankless job... i will probably think,at times,next season that he may be a jerk,but honestly,he has to be better than Colin Campbell,who no matter what the NHL said,had a inherent conflict of interest with his son,Gregory,playing for the Boston Bruins... Campbell was the worst at his old job-supplemental discipline-because he literally favored the top-tier talent(name players),over the grunts(the middle of the pack NHL player)... i am not saying that any player in NHL is not gifted... they are the best hockey players in the world,and perhaps the best athletes,overall,but Campbell favored stars,over the regular NHL player,which was wrong then,and is now... good luck Mr.Shanahan,you will need it...
