Bettman Addresses Goaltender Interference, Penguins Sale
Description
NHL Commissioner Gary Bettman addressed growing concerns over goaltender interference calls, particularly from the Pittsburgh Penguins, who have a perfect losing streak in challenges this season. He also provided an update on the teams sale to the Hoffmann family. Bettman defended the Situation Room crew, led by Colin Campbell, for making most calls correctly, despite criticism from Penguins GM Kyle Dubas and coaches about inconsistent rulings. The leagues challenge overturn rate dropped from 55% to 35% this season, leading to more losses for coaches. The Penguins sale is progressing, with Fenway Sports Group cashing out to the Hoffmann group, and Bettman expressed confidence in the deals approval.
