Top NHL agent calls out Gray Bettman for terrible officiating

Allan Walsh didn't hold back his frustration with NHL officiating in recent online posts. He minced no words, openly criticizing the quality of refereeing in the league.

In a bold move, he directed his ire at NHL Commissioner Gary Bettman, emphasizing that even though the league can silence coaches and GMs, it can't silence agents.

Walsh's outburst isn't an isolated incident. Throughout this season, discontent with officiating has been widespread. Many stakeholders, including fans, players, and experts, have expressed their disappointment with the quality of refereeing.

There is growing consensus that officiating in the NHL has taken a noticeable downturn. Adding to the frustration is the perceived lack of a sufficient response from the league itself, raising questions about the NHL's commitment to addressing the issue.

It remains to be seen whether the NHL will react to these concerns, as the league is known for fiercely protecting its officials.
