Is Bettman okay? He's shaking like he has Parkinsons or something similar. (Not mocking him - I'm genuinely wondering.)

He's been shaking like that for years.

Has he? I guess I haven't really seen him recently then.

The guy gets booed by the home team’s fans for presenting their team with the Stanley Cup! It happens every single year, no matter who wins! It’s the most awkward trophy presentation in all of sports!

I'm familiar with the booing...

He was worried that a non-American team might actually win the cup.

I would love to see his discomfort if 2 Canadian teams were playing in the final series.

That'd be an easy one for him. He'd prefer the team furthest from Toronto and Montreal.
