BREAKING: Bettman Swallows His Pride and Changes Controversial Rule

After a long and painful discourse about pride tape in the NHL, Gary Bettman and the NHL have swallowed their pride and changed the rule.

The PR disaster that the NHL created by banning pride tape was like no other. Now, about two weeks after the official ruling, and strong words from star players like Connor McDavid and Cale Makar, the league has changed its rule.

It is nice to see that the NHL was able to swallow its pride (excuse the pun) and change this ruling. It would have been better, however, if they had never made it in the first place.
