-if it's anything else, then ref does have a decision to make. And then, context matters. When the context is that the Jets just had 2:30 of poweplay time, including 1:30 of 5 on 3, and couldn't score... why the hell are you giving them another chance, late in the game, on a ticky-tack call?
The call isn't wrong. It's just not good refereeing, in my opinion.

Yeah, agreed.
I personally thought that the trip on Andersson was a bad call. And when the Flames killed it successfully, that should have been it. Often, an official will let ticky-tacky stuff go after a marginal call l7ke that—especially on the heels of a long 5-on-3. I was floored by the Kardi call last night. Then, livid at the result.
I think it's the most emotionally investedI have been in a game since 2022.
