For the record, I don't think there's any conspiracy - the Sharks just collectively have a horseshoe up their asses when it comes to these calls. At this point their cup run is tainted in my view and I hope it just blows up in their faces. Like, a game 7 OT where a ref straight up grabs the puck and throws it in the sharks' net or something.
I really don't think more coach's challenges is the answer though. I think we really have to go the video official approach. Put a ref in the press box, and let him radio down to the guys on the ice if he thinks a call was missed. No more delay tactics by coaches, no more inconsistency from call to call.
