I have no big issues with how the game was officiated, except for the Rick Green goal. There was a lot of clutch and grab.. and the calls were fairly even.

Lemieux went off the rails in the third. The slew foot then running Vernon and taking a 10 minute misconduct. Poor Al Macinnis taking the even up call and missed the bench celebration by sitting in the box for the last minute and a bit. At least he had Pepper in his gonch to celebrate with.

I remember going crazy after the 3-2 goal. Possibly one of the most blatant goalie interference plays ever. There's a reason why Denis Morel was run out of the league a few seasons after. This is one of them.

Much prefer the way today's game is called. Allows for more skill to be demonstrated and rids the league of many marginal players.
