Because they don't think it's worth money to get the calls right. Personally I think they're very wrong. I don't think the NHL is losing fans to frustration, but I do think they have a problem gaining fans because of the general refereeing mess.
I've watched a few games with people who have been interested in learning the game, and usually at the end of the night they're clearly annoyed by the fact that even in a room full of hockey fans nobody can clearly explain why some things get a penalty call and other similar things don't.
Video replays are just one more thing that shows what a mess the refereeing is.
