LATEST | NHL admits to making significant mistake: An official statement has been released
The National Hockey League doesn't often like to admit that they're wrong about certain aspects of how things are run, but on Wednesday via a statement on their Public Relations account, they announced they've made a mistake.
In the statement, the National Hockey League announced that they've gone back and update the mistakes made when counting the hits statistic and all updates can be seen on their website as of today.
"As part of an ongoing effort to provide the most accurate statistical accounting possible of NHL games, the League has performed a comprehensive audit of the hits statistic in every game this season and made appropriate adjustments. The newly updated season totals are reflected on NHL.com and in the League's statistical releases as of today." The NHL's Public Relations department said.
It's nice to see this type of transparency from the National Hockey League and hopefully we'll be seeing more of this going forward, whether it's regarding topics like this, such as admitting they were wrong in counting a specific statistic, or any other matters to do with the game.
