Who wouldn't have been a bit intrigued with the 6'7" John Scott playing with Johnny Gaudreau. It could have been a marketing goldmine! I am sure Scott could have provided the necessary duties of getting the puck to Gaudreau then standing in front of the net too.
Optics really are bad for the NHL on this one in my opinion but I don't think you can prove the NHL had anything to do with the final outcome.
