John Scott deserved better from Gary Bettman and the NHL

This may not include any white hot St. Louis Blues breaking news(it's the All Star Break and no Jaden Schwartz isn't ready yet so shut it), but I have a soft spot for enforcers so bear with me here.

One of the league's best sheriffs(Tony Twist's label), John Scott, got hosed by the NHL this past month. After the fans voted him in for the All Star Game, the Arizona Coyotes and the NHL tag teamed Scott's season and life and ended up shipping not only to the Montreal Canadiens but to the Habs minor league team. In case you haven't read Scott's stirring Players Tribune entry(show some damn respect and do it here), the NHL had the nerve to ask Scott if this(playing in the freaking All Star game) would be something his two little girls would be proud of.
