You don't always write careful emails especially when sending them internally. I do agree they should be careful when sending things externally to the media. It's a good lesson that our work emails could be subject to the same scrutiny at some point.

I guess it depends on what type of business you are in. For my work emails, I always triple check them for spelling and especially tone before hitting send because it is understood that they are a permanent conversation record. While bad spelling or grammar does sneak through occasionally, it is understood that you shouldn't record things like name calling or obviously condescending tones. Emails from years ago are still accessed today for information and you never know who will be reading what one day. It's hard to believe that a multi-billion dollar business like the NHL basically has a bunch of meatheads sending out internal company emails like this.
