The Montreal Canadiens recalled forward Michael Bournival
from the Hamilton Bulldogs on Monday. Bournival has
played in two games with the Bulldogs this season,
recording one goal. The 22-year-old split last season
between the Canadiens and Bulldogs. In 60 regular season
games with Montreal, he recorded seven goals, seven
assists and 18 penalty minutes. In three regular season
games with Hamilton, the Shawinigan, Que. native recorded
two goals, one assist and two penalty minutes. In 74
career American Hockey League regular season games with
the Dogs, he has recorded 34 points (13 goals, 21
assists) and 28 penalty minutes. Bournival was originally
selected by the Colorado Avalanche in the third round
(71st overall) in the 2010 NHL Entry Draft. He was
acquired by the Canadiens from the Avalanche in exchange
for defenceman Ryan OByrne on Nov. 11, 2010.

Saturday at Carrow Road, the spirit of fair play trumped
the rulebook, costing Norwich City three points.NBA
Commissioner Adam Silver announced Tuesday that Donald
Sterling is banned for life from the Clippers
organization. As well, he has been fined $2.5 million.
Finally, Silver will recommend to the Board of Governors
that Sterling be forced to sell the team. Fine and
Expulsion The fine of $2.5 million was not a surprise.
The likely range was somewhere between $1 million and $5
million. However, the NBA went farther than expected by
banning Sterling for life from the Clippers. That means
that Sterling is not only permanently removed from the
day-to-day operations of the league, but he cant be part
of the franchise in any way. A suspension of 1 to 2 years
was initially expected. Banning Sterling for life is a
precedent setting punishment and appropriate under the
circumstances. The comments were of course despicable and
disturbing. As well, the majority of the NBA player
population is of color. According to a 2013 report, 76.3
per cent of NBA players are African-American and 80.1 per
cent are of color. So when the majority of the league
workforce is African-American, the NBA has no choice but
to ask as decisively as possible within its legal
framework. Forcing the Sale of the Team This is where
things get a bit messy. The NBA by-laws allow the league
to remove an owner in limited circumstances, including if
the team is in financial distress. We saw something
similar in baseball when MLB took over the Dodgers when
Frank McCourt made a mess of the team. The NBA by-laws,
however, are unlikely to provide a reasonable basis for
the league to terminate his ownership. Rather, the NBA
will likely look to Article 35 of the NBA Constitution,
which allows the commissioner to indefinitely suspend
owners for "conduct prejudicial or detrimental to the
association".dddddddddddd The NBA needs three-quarters of
owners to agree to the sale. This is broad language and
does provide an arguable legal basis to remove Sterling.
However, I emphasize "arguable." This language does not
unequivocally give the NBA the authority to hand down the
most dramatic and substantial of all penalties - forcing
an owner to sell. So that means its possible that
Sterling could fire back with a lawsuit if forced to sell
alleging that the leagues owners have acted unlawfully.
That type of lawsuit could be worth $100 million plus for
Sterling. Thats why the NBA didnt announce Sterling is
being forced to sell; rather they announced they would
recommend that he be forced to sell and take it from
there. As part of that same lawsuit, Sterling could
allege that the NBA doesnt have the authority to ban him
for life, and that the penalty is disproportionately
high. Not only does Sterling have a history of racially
insensitive comments, he also has a history of suing the
NBA. After acquiring the San Diego Clippers in 1981,
Sterling moved the team to Los Angeles without the
leagues consent in 1984. David Stern, Commissioner of the
NBA at the time, fined Sterling $25 million. What did
Sterling do in response? He sued the NBA for $100
million. The fine was later reduced to $6 million. So
depending on how Sterling takes Tuesdays news, this may
not be done.
