With the National Hockey League (NHL) a little over 24 hours from locking out their employees for the next season, and given that the NHL commissioner has stated that "[w]e've had seven years of incredible competitive balance", I thought that I would look at this statement. Since the cancelled 2004-05 NHL season, here is the Noll-Scully measure of competitive balance using the binomial and trinomial distribution for both a sample and the population.

Recently the NHL has been more competitive, thus supporting the NHL commissioner's statement.
