I was at the game. He stood on the bench and yelled something indecipherable, and was up there for maybe 2 seconds. I really don't agree with calling that penalty with under 10 minutes left in a tied hockey game. I hate seeing the referees decide a game like that.

It was a tight game and it should've been decided by the players. But the way the officiating has gone this year, there have been more than a couple games that haven't been.
I have a friend who sits in he area behind the visitors bench and is close enough. I asked him if the penalty was justified, his response was a straight up "Big Time, AV said far more then that's an elbow and there was a pretty big sting of profanity"

Refs very rarely called that kind of bench minor unless its deserved, I can't remember the last time I saw a abuse of officials bench penalty.

Canuck loving Garrett said Hudler embellished, and was glad the ref didn't call it, because the Canucks are always victims of embellished calls

I laughed when he said that too. Atleast the Canucks' Sportsnet broadcast isn't as annoying as Hughson though.

The Canucks own broadcast crew described Vigneault as "screaming" and "livid" at the ref. You do that, you're going to get called more often than not.
