So the refs called it and ejected Gio. Total garbage. Especially since they never called the initial penalty they waited 2-4 minutes before getting around to the pesky business of doing the jobs they're paid for.

It was pretty clearly, especially in light of the NHL's 'No Harm Done, No Supplemental Discipline' ruling, appeasement to the crowd.

Thats pretty concerning.
