They don't create a case for a conspiracy, no.

Moving on there is no way Wideman as a first time offender should have gotten 20 games for intentionally injuring an official. The collision was gonna happen either way its not like he chased the guy down...20 games for extending his arms? Use your head
If Wideman intentionally injured an official, 20 games is the minimum he should have gotten, per the rule book. This line of argument is a dead end for you. You should stick to arguing it was incidental/accidental.

Flames fans frustrations have been validated by the arbitrator
Partially. Many predicted this was were we would end up. But I would note that you have been vehemently arguing that Wideman's actions were completely accidental and that he did nothing wrong. The arbitrator most certainly has not validated your position any more than he validated Bettman's.
