And I agree - hockey culture is a little twisted about the role of the on ice officials.

There should always be the ability to converse with officials in a calm and respectful manner.
What is wrong with NHL officiating, to me it seems like they are more into game management rather than enforcing the rules of the game.
What is a penalty in one game isn't in another (even with the same officials on the ice).
It is consistently inconsistent.
