No, you cannot, unless you are expecting it from him. I just finished re-watching game 3, and he did the EXACT same thing on a Flames play, and called an intentional wide shot.

I sincerely believe that this is a matter of your own perception. But if you think differently, and you honestly believe the call is tipped egregiously out of balance in favour of the Canucks, then demonstrate it. Go through the games, track the call, make observations and record notes about patterns and consistency for both teams—count his usage of key words and phrases, compare and contrast similarities and differences.

Show me some actual numbers that illustrate what you are talking about, and then I might believe you. Otherwise, I must conclude that this is your own confirmation bias at work.
