There is a lot of questions I ask about this league. Its pretty sad.

NHL doing NHL things.

By now I feel like the real takeaway from this isn't that the NHL might have edited a video to avoid talking about concussion, its that a lot of its fans think that sounds just like something they'd do.

I love myself a good conspiracy but come on. That exchange was INCREDIBLY clunky and would be a terribly anticlimactic way to end the video.

No conspiracy here, its clear as day. There was no reason to filter that out at all... I dont know how people can even think of that conclusion about the 'flow' of conversation... It was pure sportsmanship, something that a professional league should be exemplifying... not having it be the ONLY thing removed from the conversation. But it alluded to something that the NHL didn't want to bring attention too. Woops, streisand effect as someone has mentioned already.
