Here's to me the piss off.

Goal is scored - Good goal by the on ice officials

Edmonton doesn't challenge it

League calls in, takes like 8 minutes of pain staking review and slow down and conversations (I think it was 8 minutes but wasn't holding a stop watch).

Look to me if you need to take 8 minutes to review, you're looking for reasons to over turn it, and making up a narrative. I think there needs to be a timer on the review. If you can't decide in a minute of two of video you're looking for something that is so inconsequential that its making shyte up.

I'm still baffled at Coleman's atheletisms, after trying to avoice a collision mostly with a goalie where he foot hits the pad and its now in the air, and he's literally leaning away and going across the crease on one foot, he managed a distinctive kicking motion with the only foot that was on the ice.

That's amazing balls, the Bolshoi ballet levels of body control and skill. Its literally equivalent to crossing a rope hoping on one foot while bouncing a ball on your nose.

Amazing.

I mean again, its still likely that the Flames lose the series, the Oilers or more specifically Conna and Leon played really well, the Flames played a pretty poor series.

But FFS league to deny a team a chance at extending a series due to sheer $$$kery and incompetence is incomprehensible.

I mean it feels like at the same time that the Oilers were celebrating on the ice in overtime, the Video review department and the League were exchanging high fives in the background.

I've said that the media should get access to the referees after games.

Or at the end of the season the head of officiating has to spend time with the media reviewing the year.

There's no accountability. The officiating crew from last night will cash their Bonus and get gift cards to Bed Breakfeast and beyond.

And the League and Sportsnet get their neato story about Conna and Leon.

I'm glad I don't have to watch the panel or hockey against for probably 8 months to a year.

And finally Fire Ron MacLean.
