Bobby Ryan under fire after social media outburst on women sports

The Iowa Hawkeyes victory over the LSU Tigers in the NCAA Women's Basketball Elite 8 drew significant attention, with 12.3 million viewers tuning in, as reported by CBC. Meghan Chayka, founder of Stathlete, expressed her delight at the high viewership on social media.

Ryan, known for sharing his opinions online since retiring from professional hockey, didn't hold back. He challenged followers to name seven players from the game, drawing ire from insider Chris Johnston.

Ryan then accused Johnston of a conflict of interest before the exchange escalated.

The incident drew widespread criticism, and as the story unfolds, updates are expected.
