If this were to happen, it would probably be the most insulting moment of Baku's career. You rather have your 2nd best forward in the stands acting crazy than playing on the ice? Truly, Bettman is wrong and the tank would truly be on.

Baku would make a fool of himself and break the first rule of mascots don't speak. From his whooping, gorilla chants (in an eagle suit?!), and clear sense of rhythm, fans would figure out Baku was in the mascot suit fairly quickly.
