I totally share the frustration. As an American sports fan, I'm used to both the NFL's clearly defined designations and the NHL's completely mysterious "upper body" or "lower body" levels of injury description. Within the league, I probably care less about having clear injury reporting (I'm not a gambler). But I do wish there were strong standards as it relates to call-ups for international duty.

I'm a Brit with little interest in or knowledge of the NHL (although my UK son actually gets paid dollars for writing blogs on the Philadelphia Eagles!), and I have zero interest in gambling. But the potential for gambling abuse is huge here - so opaque and zero regulation. Surely this cannot continue. Nor should it. (PS: my son is also a fanatical Arsenal fan... but payment in this case is one way – from him to Arsenal for merchandise!)
