Shirotashi Posted June 24, 2017 Share Posted June 24, 2017 So my FB buddy just posted this video showing Bettman shoving this kid aside. Apparently when the Canucks where going to make their selection, they were going to allow this kid to announce it. Bettman steps and and grabs the kid by the arm and shoves him to 1 side lol; https://www.hockeyfeed.com/videos/breaking-gary-bettman-bullies-little-kid-on-the-draft-stage?ref=jo If theres a post on this already please delete.

EternalCanuckFan Posted June 24, 2017 Share Posted June 24, 2017 As reprehensible as that video is, I don't think adding a single degree to the 1,000 degree centigrade fire of hate against Bettman is going to make a big difference. That being said, that could technically be seen as assault :P. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mathew Barzal Posted June 24, 2017 Share Posted June 24, 2017 Apparently? It looked like he was going to let him make it and then Benning said no. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't like Bettman either, but it seems clear that Bettman was going to let the kid speak or was perhaps joking about it, but then either Benning said no, or Bettman realized that the kid didn't realize that he was joking. Painting this as Bettman being the bad guy is a little too biased, IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then Buttman cuts him off at the pass and shoves him a step or two to stage left. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Western Red Posted June 24, 2017 Share Posted June 24, 2017 I saw that and was gonna say something. It looked like Jim gave Little Gary a look that was interpreted as something it wasn't. Jim gave Bettman the wrong look at the wrong time and GB took the kid out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I get why people think that Bettman asked the kid to go too, its just why is no one heading for the mic? No one seems surprised when he heads over. Still tho no excuse to shove the kid like that lol. If your going to shove kids its fine btw, just not on camera haha kids need a shove now and then, sometime for their total benefit, but not like that.

JeremyCuddles Posted June 24, 2017 Share Posted June 24, 2017 Looks like Bettman motions the kid towards the mic thinking they were gonna let him announce it then Benning says no. A little dramatic people, come on. I dislike the guy as much as some of you but lets no paint a "he bullies kids" angle on him. Like the click bait title suggests.

Hitler, Bettman and Trump are the 3 most hateable historical personalities. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
