Gary Bettman gives unfair disadvantage to the Maple Leafs

Gary Bettman is accused of giving an unfair disadvantage to the Toronto Maple Leafs in the first round of the Stanley Cup Playoffs against the Boston Bruins.

Indeed, Bettman is currently under fire for the management of the Toronto Maple Leafs' playoffs schedule, the hardest in the League.

The Leafs played the last game of their regular season on Wednesday and were back on the ice for playoff hockey on Saturday. They had two days between those games, while the other teams had more. The Bruins had one more day, while some teams haven't even played their first game yet. The Oilers, Golden Knights, Stars and Kings, will play their first game, two days after the Leafs played theirs.

With William Nylander's injury, the Leafs could've used a few extra days to recover. If he had more time to recover, he could've been a part of the first game, and the outcome could've been different for the Leafs.
