True. But remember the ref was likely a kid and made a mistake on the call or simply did not hear it. Mistaken call would be more likely. Hence, instead of marching his team off the ice Walsh should have dealt with it in an adult manner.
Go to the other teams coach after the game and tell him what he saw and heard. Inform the coach that he would take it to the league immediately seeking a suspension and a (written) apology from his player. End of story.
