Get it right. Period.
Oilers got it right.
Sucks as a Flames fan, but it's the right call.

All the penalties are subjective to how the referees want the game to go, they even have the ability to waive off an icing. On an offside so close they should also have the ability to say it was too close to make a difference. The NHL rules are stupid. Either call everything by the rules or let everything be subjective to how they want to call it.
