Breaking News: Co-Commissioner Position Created and Named

Today, IHHL team owners were shocked by an announcement made by Commissioner Heilmann, creating the office of Co-Commissioner for the league. It is interesting to note that the new position will be filled by Scott J. Hall, as there have been rumors throughout the season of strife between Mr. Hall and Commissioner Heilmann.

At the press announcement, Commissioner Heilmann was quoted:

“I am happy to announce the creation of the position of Co-Commissioner and to have my good friend and colleague, Scott Hall.  step up and take on the responsibility of improve the IHHL.  As we look to grow the leagues dominance in the sports entertainment industry, it is important that look for new opportunities and not be constrained by past decisions and actions

The first order of business that Scott will undertake is to work with Alyssa to find and a company that is better suited to work with the IHHL and moving us forward into the 21st century. I have the utmost confidence that Scott and Alyssa will be an outstanding team to help grow IHHL.

In the meantime, I will be focusing on supporting our league as we begin our push into the playoffs. “

Sources close to league management wonder if Commissioner Heilmann’s motivation is less about expanding the league and more about keeping Mr. Hall close and on a short lease. Setting the motivation for this move aside, the pairing of Mr. Hall with Ms. Gagen makes sense as it creates a team with a proven track record of looking after the league interests, deep experience with technology matters, and having deep ties to the entertainment industry.
