The National Hockey League has had a very hard time with consistent, reliable and honest officiating it recent years, but it seems early this season the on ice product has diminished even more. However, most times we wonder why players and coaches don't speak out about the obvious miss calls. Now, we have our answer.
I know Gary Bettman wants to have control over things, but you shouldn't be able to have this much control over coaches and general manages. Especially when your product on the ice is suffering the way that it is.
I don't always agree with Walsh and how outspoken he is on Twitter, but if this is at all true, this is another example at how Bettman is ruining the game of hockey. Coaches and general managers should be able to call out officials, otherwise, it's just not right.
