Bernadette Mansur was rewarded for her efforts ‘in directing the communications efforts throughout the NHL's labour dispute and rebounding from the fallout of the cancellation of the 2004-05 hockey season’, by the Public Relations Society of America.
Said Kelly Womer, chair of the PRSA awards committee: “Bernadette Mansur effectively used her public relations skills to help guide the NHL through the crisis of the lock-out and the subsequent challenge of making the league a winning brand again for the fans, media and sports business community.”
