Ken Dryden presents in his new book Game Change strong opinion:
If the few hits to the head that exist in the game would be called penalties, with no exceptions, no matter whether the hit is intentional or accidental, the game and the enjoyment derived from the game would not be changed by much.
Some might recognize Dryden as a key member of one of the greatest dynasties ever stepped on ice, a first ballot Hall-of-Famer, practically unanimously top-10 goaltender in the history of the hockey and a keen observer and a student of the game. Definitely a figure who should understand the game and the culture surrounding it.
Dryden challenges the commissioner Gary Bettman to act. Does Dryden's view has any future?
