More Florida favoritism- so Ekblad misses the rest of the regular season and the first two games of round 1. Who cares? Gary of course won't hinder the Panthers from another deep run. This would actually mean something if it included the entire playoffs.

These are CBA mandated suspensions. It isn't up to Gary on this.

Wonder if FLA knew about it and thats why they got Jones...

Zero chance Ekblad wasn't juicing in the playoffs last year. f*** the Panthers.

Bettman's league. Gotta help his poor teams that did f*** all but lose money for a decade.

If it turns out it's just Ekblad...whatever, I'll move on. But if that Islanders reddit is right and it's more than just him...it might honestly be the last straw for me, especially if they try to sweep it under the rug

Between the onslaught on gambling ads, CGI ads, jersey ads, my passion has been steadily wanting over the winter.

This might be it for me too.

Yup, the overall product quality has been declining over the years. The poor officiating is also a blight. NMCs that basically f*** over Canadian / small markets...lots of things to hate about the league

The way Bettman and the NHL have treated Canada for a majority of my lifetime. To keep such a close eye on the Winnipeg Jets, blocking any attempt for Quebec City from coming back, and yet be obsessed with markets like Atlanta, Phoenix etc, it's a f***ing joke.

Don't forget the league 'closely monitoring' what the Oilers chose to do with Kane as if they were ready to pounce on the Oilers to infract them of any potential penalties especially if they tried to pull off a Vegas Mark Stone LTIR 2.0. Meanwhile here's the news of f***ing Ekblad getting juiced up and suspended only 20 regular season games today, but will be 100% allowed to play G1 of the upcoming playoffs, makes sense! I wonder who else on that stupid ass team got juiced up from last year's finals without any knowledge except their own organization, pfft.
Then we also have Shane Pinto from the Senators who got suspended 41 games for online gambling which the NHL promotes the shit ton of. How ironic, really LOL. It's comical that Pinto got suspended for half of a season for that meanwhile here's Ekblad getting half of what Pinto received. It's an absolute f***ing joke of this league.

But hey, more betting ads sponsored to you every day by draftkings, Cabbie, etc etc.
Get f***ed, Bettman.

lol f***ing cheaters

F*** this franchise! F*** them even more if this is true! What a laughable farce the NHL is these days. Why even watch? I already usually don't.

 

[BlackDogg]

Can't they test them all?
