Eddie Gossage courted by the NHL

Forget Eddie Shore hockey. How about Eddie Gossage hockey?
Apparently the NHL is looking to Gossage, the president of Texas Motor Speedway, to become an executive in the hockey league.
Gossage said in a statement that he is flattered by the attention, but he has not spoken to anyone in the NHL.
"The speculation surrounding me says a lot about the growth and popularity of NASCAR and its place among today’s mainstream sports," Gossage said. "But I have the dream job right now and the perfect relationship with SMI [Speedway Motorsports, Inc.] Chairman Bruton Smith. I have no intention of leaving Texas Motor Speedway and my personal goal is to be here as long as Tom Landry was with the Dallas Cowboys. He is, in my mind, the icon of sporting success in the Dallas/Fort Worth Metroplex and that remains a lofty goal for me to reach someday.�
