It wasn't the fact that he was betting....it was the fact that Tocchet was running it as a bookie....that's illegal.
Its also illegal to be placing bets with someone who isn't licensed by the State......The government wants their cut you know. |

So is it "ok" with the league if a player puts a "legit vegas type" bet on another sport? I think not? though I think it should be ok.

In hockey you may bet "legally" on any other sport as long as its not hockey...Also it seems a major crime family in South Jersey and Philly has been involved...Just the tip of the iceberg...

Sportsflash on EEI says that wiretaps have Gretzky talking on phone about the gambling operation. This was BEFORE the case was announced. Even though the tap doesn't contain evidence that Gretzky did any betting, it shows he clearly lied about not knowing anything about it.
