It's also a mistake to let your officials finish games if they are concussed. Wideman didn't even get a penalty on the play.
If the NHL draws a line in the sand with this, it's laughable after some of their antics with Bertuzzi, Cooke, Torres, etc.
This is gonna get ugly.

I really don't think this "free for all against offficials" thing is a legitimate concern for the NHL and it makes me laugh a little bit inside when it's brought up by the league as a concern.
It is not, has not, and will never be open season on officials in the NHL.
