Jeffrey Orridge
Jeffrey Lyndon Orridge (born )〔 is the commissioner of the Canadian Football League. Between 2011-2015, Orridge served as executive director of CBC Sports.〔(CBC Sports article )〕
==Executive Director of CBC Sports==
Orridge was appointed to his position at CBC Sports on April 4, 2011, after his appointment was announced the previous March. Orridge succeeded Scott Moore. He was responsible for acquisition, management, and revenue optimization of sports properties. As the chief negotiator, he is credited for bringing the broadcasting rights to the 2014 and 2016 Olympic Games back to CBC/Radio-Canada, as well as the rights to the 2015 Pan American Games. Under his watch, CBC lost the rights to FIFA World Cup soccer which it was seeking to renew, and failed to win back the CFL rights it had lost following the broadcasting of its final Grey Cup in 2007.〔http://www.theglobeandmail.com/sports/hockey/hockey-night-in-canada-how-cbc-lost-it-all/article21072643/?page=all〕
Orridge was also principally responsible for the management of the National Hockey League's relationship with CBC, a broadcasting contract that CBC lost in November 2013 under Orridge's watch after the 2013-14 NHL season.〔http://www.nhl.com/ice/news.htm?id=693152〕 CBC's hope had been that Orridge's long-time relationship with Gary Bettman would help CBC secure a renewal of the NHL broadcast rights due to the fact that Orridge and Bettman knew each other from their basketball management days in the early 1990's. CBC had held the rights to NHL broadcasts in Canada for 62 years prior to Orridge's handling of the file.
The Globe and Mail reported: "It didn’t have to happen, staff at both the CBC and Hockey Night say, because they believe NHL commissioner Gary Bettman and his marketing chief John Collins were willing to offer the CBC a compromise that would have saved a scaled-down version of Hockey Night for the network that still would have been a significant source of revenue. Those staffers also believe the CBC executives missed this chance because of their failure to recognize the changed broadcast landscape and to see the threat posed by Rogers and BCE Inc., which owns the TSN and CTV networks. The CBC negotiators insisted throughout an exclusive negotiating period with the NHL that any new deal would see the network stick to a regional and national schedule by carrying all games played by Canadian-based NHL teams on Saturdays... Sources said the NHL bosses told Orridge and McEneaney to drop the regional broadcasts of Canadian teams and cut back to two games on Saturday night, at 7 p.m. and 10 p.m. (Eastern time), give up the all-star game as well as the digital rights and cut back on playoff coverage. Then the CBC was offered the top ratings draw, the Toronto Maple Leafs, or the Montreal Canadiens for the early games on Saturday nights and the Stanley Cup final for at least a few years. Do that, it was said, and we’ll work out a number. Then we’ll sell the other games and other platforms to other bidders."〔 Orridge's tenure with CBC Sports ended after April 9, 2015.
