I think the backlash Teddy is getting here is a bit unfounded if you ask me. I do not think he meant for anything here to embarrass the IIHF or to throw Arty under the buss. Teddy has not once ever struck me as the type of person to do those things to anyone.

The dude wasn't happy with his job so he stepped down. I'm sure a bunch of people would have asked him why he did that so instead of answering 100 questions he just made 1 thread explaining his reasoning. He was unhappy, it doesn't seem like there is anything personal or otherwise going on here.

You cant really blame the guy for being frustrated with something and then leaving, whatever his reasoning is. Its just that in this case I feel like his frustrations are realized by several people and it is not something that is isolated to just him. Hearing that the new IIHF democratic system is finding it difficult to get votes partially proves that.

Its not like Teddy is publicizing personal beef to try and gather sympathy from the community. It seems like he has serious issues with how the IIHF is being run and his resignation is him sending a message as such.
