Wow... this will be huge...

the summary, he was the money man behined a betting "services" that had MOB ties and was taking bets from NHL players, coaches etc...

Wayne Gretzkey wasn't named, his WIFE was...

Apperently this has been a Sting NJ has been working for a couple of years.

I have a feeling this could destroy the NHL, they're having enough problems... lack of coverage, fans, etc.... start taking the embasadors to the game such a Wayne Getzkey and drag them through the mud, even worse, have them do jail time? or plead to stay out of jail?

While in the grand scene, I personally feel gambling should be legal, it isn't and just seems like some people should have known better.
