This observation seems to be held only by those who were interested in seeing Scott play / weren't interested in the ASG otherwise. I don't see a lot of casual or unbiased observers/fans losing trust in the league.
Most of these conspiracy theories are being trumpeted by that select group anyway, nobody outside of them seems to be suggesting the NHL was even involved.
