Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of National Hockey League controversies (2nd nomination)
per .  There are numerous controversies in hockey every year, pretty much any time a coach is fired or perhaps not fired and when a referee blows a call (or there is a close call) in a crucial game.  A few controversies I can think of off the top of my head that are not here are the Rocket Richard suspension (if we are including suspensions, and most suspensions involve some element of controversy, including whether there should have been a suspension and whether it was too harsh or harsh enough), the Dale Hunter suspension (ditto), the Phil Espositp for Jean Ratelle and Brad Park trade (if we are including trade, and there are obviously many, many controversial trades), the Bruins entering the stands at Madison Square Garden to fight with fans, the Rangers hiring Bryan Trottier as a coach (and there have been many controversial coaching hires, although perhaps not engendering as many as firings). I don't see a way this subject can be focused enough to be useful - a full list of notable controversies for which a few references could be found would contain hundreds and hundreds of elements, and trying to cut that down would just be based on particular editors point of view
