Baby Orr

Refs need to start calling the rules by the book. None of this put the whistles away in the 3rd, makeup calls because the other team got 5 penalties in the row, and letting little hacks and slashes get away. To me it's as simple as that. Start suspending/fining players so that it hurts their pocket book and you'll see players start to change their game.

Fact is, the NHL is run by the old boys club and until a new generation of NHL management comes in, things are never going to change.
