EP067 - The Latest Round of Draft Lottery Reform and Why Tim Peel's Scapegoating Shows Us the NHL Cares More About the Appearance of Fairness Than Actual Fairness
On this episode Steve is joined by the Kung Fu Canuck to discuss the latest round of draft lottery reform and whether the NHL will ever get this right or if they are simply playing a never-ending game of whack-a-mole. Then they discuss the scapegoating of referee Tim Peel and how it is yet another example of how the NHL cares more about the appearance of fairness than actual fair competition. They also discuss why this approach goes against the approach of more successful leagues like the NBA and NFL who reward their stars and promote an increase in offense.
