Couple of things here...
My cynical side says this kind of Public Relations exercise by the NHL is really just following the North American trend of "getting green" because it's expedient to do so. Given it's the number one policy topic among Canadians at least, this feels kind of shallow.
Still, at least one sports league isn't living in a bubble from reality (which is ironic considering the NHL is all about denying economic realities, *cough,* Gary Bettman)
