I agree. If the zebras were calling everything by the book (ex. visor in a fight, delay of game by RNH not having his stick down during faceoff...) then why not call it a goaltender interference penalty if there was one by Gagner. It was clearly not, as shown on tv, when he was pushed into Quick, they both had their equipment tangled up. Why could they not review the goal on replay since it was allowed and there was no penalty called?
BTW, the double minor on Smid for being an (instigator and having a visor on in a fight) was a joke. Clearly, they dropped their gloves at the same time with Nolan a split second earlier... The inconsistent calls really put the crowd into a frenzy and that is something these refs should address. They are not the show.
