It was an embarrassing night that left a sour taste in lots of peoples mouths.

When asked about what the Chicago�Blackhawks are looking to do to prevent another Kyle Beach situation, instead of answering the question, Rocky�Wirtz unleashed on the reporters who brought up the subject.�

"What we're going to do today is our business, I don't think it's any of your business," the senior Wirtz said back to the reporter. "Because I don't think it's any of your business. You don't work for the company."

When asked again, Wirtz doubled down.

"I told you to get off the subject," Wirtz replied. "We're not going to bring up the report... I told you, we're moving on. I think you're out of line to ask that line of questions. Why don't you ask about something else? Why don't you ask about the GM search? Why don't you do something else? Why do you bring up old business?"

NHL legend Wayne Gretzky was asked about the tirade and made a pretty solid point that not only is it embarrassing, but will any youngster want to play for the Hawks moving forward?

"From every point of view, this is just a horrible scenario, horrible situation what happened to that young man," Gretzky said. "But I'm sitting here thinking, as a parent, you're sitting here going 'my son is 18 years old, he's going to maybe be drafted by that team... I want to know my 18-year-old son is going to be protected.'"

What do you think of Gretzky's comments?
