The youngster completely lost his composure trying to make an impression, costing the Flames their best player for the final 12 minutes of the game and will face no repercussion for doing so.
Edit: just noticed the linesmen were Greg Devorski and Shane Heyer. So 5,000 games between three of the officials and the youngster. No wonder he was trying everything he could to get noticed.

Oh.
Oh yeah. He got noticed, all right.
