Former NHL Referee Takes Shot at Kyle Dubas
The notorious ex-NHL referee, Tim Peel, infamous for his controversial decisions on the ice, is stirring the pot yet again.
Once known for his particular way of managing games and alleged biases towards certain players and teams, Peel now makes headlines more for his online shenanigans.
What's His Game Plan?
It's plausible to think that Peel might be using this approach simply to draw attention. His tweet, oddly enough, mentions former Montreal Canadiens General Manager Marc Bergevin. Bergevin, a contentious figure himself, has faced criticism from Canadiens fans for his questionable decisions, ranging from inconsistent drafting to rash moves in free agency.
In the context of a conversation about Dubas, mentioning Bergevin seems out of place and perhaps intentionally provocative. By involving these two figures, Peel appears to be playing with the emotions of two of the largest (and arguably most fervent) NHL fan bases to fuel his online persona.
Is this all a calculated ploy for attention or just a misguided tweet? Only Peel knows for sure.
