NHL comments on George Parros performance as head of the Player Safety and their comment may surprise you
Over the last two season George Parros has faced a ton of criticism from teams, players and fans about his performance of the NHL's Department of Player Safety. However, it appears that Gary Bettman doesn't share that same sentiment about the job Parros has done.
During yesterday's NHL press conference Gary Bettman was asked what he thought about Parros performance and to almost no one's surprise Bettman provides a glowing review.
George Parros is doing a great job, the game of hockey has never been safer.
While this comment is surprising to some, to many it's just another example of Bettman protecting his product. For a league that refuses to acknowledge CTE, it's not a shock that Bettman would compliment Parros' inconsistent performance in his role. It is however expected new head of the NHL Players Association, Marty Walsh will have some sort of conversation this summer with the league about player safety.
Only time will tell if change is on the horizon.
