Gary Bettman Under Fire for Allegedly Fixing the Cup Final

Gary Bettman certainly isn't beloved, but Florida Panthers fans may hate him more than any other team now.

It's no secret that this cup finals matchup has been great for the growth of the game. Hockey is at its peak in South Florida, with ticket prices in the same range as the NBA finals, and the MLS' debut games with Lionel Messi.

In Vegas, the shows and extravagance are on full display, and the NHL is looking utterly fantastic to investors.

Unfortunately, the precedent of this is that fans feels that the Golden Knights have had the officiating advantage in this series, and NHL conspiracy theorists believe this comes from the top.

Fans are clearly fet up with the inconsistency and the seemingly biased calls.

Is this tournament truly rigged?
