It was a stupid question. Has any player in the NHL ever admitted that he should have received a penalty that he didn't receive?

Also, as it says in the story, if it did deserve a penalty (which it did), the goal that was scored immediately afterward wiped it out.

I don't think there's anything inappropriate about the "maybe you should be a referee" comment. If it had been a male reporter, it would have also been a completely acceptable response.

He shouldn't have brought up her gender because it was completely irrelevant to the stupidity of the question. He obviously doesn't deal with the Calgary media enough, or he'd know that stupid questions don't have anything to do with the gender of the reporter.
