Many Canadians believe that NHL Commissioner Gary Bettman dislikes their teams, pointing to questionable events whenever a Canadian team gets close to the Stanley Cup. While the Edmonton Oilers are just one win away from their first title since 1990, fans remain wary.
One fan directly asked Bettman about his alleged bias, but the Commissioner offered little response.
Despite talk of relocation, the NHL seems focused on expanding in the United States, overlooking Canada despite its many talented players. While there are reasons for these decisions, fans continue to question Bettman's motives.
Though the belief is popular yet unfounded, this fan's attempt to get answers highlights the ongoing frustration among Canadian hockey fans.
