I wouldn't go as far as to say conspiracy, but the league has done some shady #### over the years. Such as the text message thing with Wideman and the emails regarding concussions and Bettman threatening former refs for speaking out. Not to mention Bettman wouldn't do another CBC interview after Ron McLean grilled him on the health of some franchises.
I think it's also partly due to incompetency. Like how they mess up things like GameCentre and player suspensions.
