Injured NHL linesman Don Henderson has been ordered by a judge to pay partial legal costs to the Calgary Flames and former player Dennis Wideman after his lawsuit against them was tossed earlier this year. Court of Queen's Bench Justice Willie deWit ordered Henderson to pay $8,000 to the Flames and $3,000 to Wideman. In March, deWit stayed the NHL official's $10.2-million lawsuit and ordered the case to be heard by an NHL arbitrator. Linesman Don Henderson would stay in the game. Henderson had argued the case should remain in court because the league and its commissioner, Gary Bettman, showed bias based on prior involvement with Wideman's suspension.
