Player Agent Allan Walsh Calls Out Gary Bettman

NHL Commissioner Gary Bettman made an announcement yesterday regarding the financial status of the NHL Read It Here. Player agent Allan Walsh has called out Bettman for the misleading nature of his comments.

Allan Walsh is known to be outspoken from time to time. You may recall his controversial social media post about his client, Marc-Andre Fleury being stabbed in the back by Vegas Golden Knights Head Coach Peter DeBoer. Now, he's after Gary Bettman. Bettman's statement indicated that the owners are leaking cash, but they're graciously doing so for the fans and players. Walsh states that this is completely false as the owners are guaranteed by the CBA extension that their annual losses are fully recoverable.

This is a deliberate and intentionally misleading statement. He conveniently omits that under CBA extension, the owners will be made whole for last year and this season over time per 50/50 split. Yeah, they’re doing it for the players and fans. https://t.co/fMYCoz7UZX
