Gary Bettman’s 30 years as NHL commissioner, US television ratings drop, potential playoff matchups, and more

Ian and Sean invent a new measurement for cold weather in NHL terms before discussing Gary Bettman's 30 years as NHL Commissioner, should the position have a term limit? Then, the ratings are down 22% for the league in the United States, and it's never too early to discuss potential NHL playoff matchups. To wrap up, a dive into the mailbag, and a look back at an outdoor game played at a prison in "This Week in Hockey History". Have a question for Ian and Sean?
