The NHL to ban two Chicago Blackhawks reporters after controversy
Blackhawks podcast hosts stir controversy over NHL's Stance on Capfriendly.com acquisition.
In an incendiary episode of the CHGO Blackhawks podcast, co-hosts Greg Boysen and Jay Zawaski unleashed a vociferous critique on NHL Commissioner Gary Bettman, following the league's apparent indifference towards the impending shutdown of Capfriendly.com.
The popular website, known for its comprehensive NHL salary cap and player contract details, has been a staple for fans seeking deeper insights into the league's financial maneuvers.
The controversy ignited after news that the Washington Capitals had acquired Capfriendly.com, with plans to discontinue the service by July 5th. This development has sparked outrage among fans and analysts alike, who see the move as a significant loss of a valuable resource.
The podcast episode resonated with a sense of betrayal among the hockey community, as Boysen and Zawaski accused the NHL of keeping fans in the dark about intricate league operations.

The backlash comes amid previous incidents where the duo has not shied away from controversy. On May 2nd, they notoriously mocked a Leafs fan's elaborate man cave, questioning his social priorities in a tone that some listeners found harsh.
As the debate heats up, the hockey community is left wondering if the NHL will respond to the critical voices of Boysen, Zawaski, and their supporters. With the podcast continuing to challenge league decisions, the saga between the Blackhawks commentators and the NHL is far from over.
This episode not only casts a spotlight on the specific grievances aired by these influential podcasters but also underscores a broader discontent within the fanbase regarding transparency in NHL operations. As the July 5th deadline approaches, all eyes will be on the league's next move in this unfolding drama.
