Personally, I wish that the game was just called consistently, regardless of the time of the game or season.
Call everything or call next to nothing, JUST BE CONSISTENT.
Don't disagree, but that is not something the Flames can control.

They need to adapt and play within whatever strictures are set out for them. Johnny needs to hit and be hit, and slashed. And not whine.
Chucky needs to hit and be a pest...and stay within the confines of what the refs tell him.
Hath needs to challenge guys on the boards and fight them the way they fight him.

None of that has much to do with the refs. It is all about how each team and each player responds to the refs calls in that game - consistent or not. Watch, observe, adapt.
