There may be some focusing on one call - but the vast majority of posters, myself included are of the view that the refs didn’t cost the Flames the series.
But the refs definitely cost the Flames game 5 and in such a stomach churning way as well. I’d say it seemed like they were on the phone to Draft King instead of the Situation Room, but we may have had better luck with Bet King given our history with the NHL.
