Alright, now that that's straightened out...
Something is really bothering me about reffing this year. Along with all the other made up rules that they introduced this year, they also sneaked in the "no hurting the refs feelings" rule. In the NJ NYR game, there was a blatant trip on kovulchuk who was potentially on his way to a shorthanded breakaway, bad no call. NJ bench gives the gears to the ref, they get a bench minor to go down 2 men.
I have not seen so many bench minors as this year, and I think its ridiculous. These guys need to be accountable ON THE ICE. If they make a blatant mistake, they should be told, and not politely.
