It's hard to explain otherwise, was such a bad look last night.
Another question for me is Bettman and why he waits until after the game to meet with him giving the league a black eye when this was an obvious move after the tsn interview aired

Re: Bettman, the guy is a lawyer. It's not a simple conversation, and with the report seemingly just coming out I'm sure he'd like to handle it similar to a court case and prep (to some degree). I don't get the raking of the coals over for Bettman. He has a huge responsibility here...preparation wouldn't be a bad thing. Perhaps both guys should've been suspended until it was resolved, but I don't blame him for needing time to prepare for something important.
