Firstly, respect. Secondly, what exact recourse does the league have if Dermott (or another player) keeps breaking this rule?

    Seeing as hockey is fairly conservative and players rarely take an active role against the league or teams I bet Bettman didn’t actually think through the response of someone used pride tape. Good on Dermott. Now the NHL is in a lose lose position. It either does nothing and the rule effectively no longer exists or it imposes a fine and the NHL gets a lot of bad PR.
