[Mean Mr. Mustard]

That was an awful call.

Came to post exactly this. NHL is such a joke, as a lifetime fan of hockey it's hard to watch at this point.

[Winsor_Pilates]

Don't the refs at some point get tired of watching tape and seeing they got conned by another McDavid stick grab?

It has to be a talked about item amongst the zebra fraternity by now.

[topfiverecords]

Lol, what a hilarious call.

[Rejean31]

Refs 1, Sens 0.

[CalgaryFan1988]

And of course they score. How can the refs not be held accountable for this total bs.

[Manhattanboy]

The officiating in this league continues to suck. Year after year it just sucks.

Like... It was a "penalty" you just never see it called.

[Erick Estrada]

If there was a penalty to be called there it was McDavid for holding the stick. The Ottawa player never even touched him. One of the worst penalty calls you will ever see.

[Rejean31]

Yep, Nurse hauls down Tkachuk in front of the Oiler net but somehow both refs miss that one. The NHL has a huge officiating problem.

McDavid holding the stick you mean?

[Manhattanboy]

Ron McLean loving the calls in favour of his beloved Oilers.

[trackercowe]

Bullsh*t

[Rejean31]

Is there someway fans can contact the NHL about puss poor calls. I would really like someone from the NHL to explain why that was a penalty on Zub, yet 2 minutes later Nurse and Ceci can haul down Tkachuk with impunity.

Because the NHL wants Conna in the playoffs. It’s just that simpo.

[You Need a Thneed]

Wait they called that a penalty on the Sen?

McDavid is almost certainly the worst stick grab offender in the league. He regularly grabs opponents stick and tucks them under his arm so he can be hooked.

And the NHL will continue to allow it to happen. He’s their star and there’s too much money to be made with him in the playoffs. Makes the whole sport look like a joke unless you’re an Oilers fan

And the league has to be aware of it. They just refuse to do anything about it because he's their Golden Boy.

Sadly, I think you are right and that is a huge credibility issue for the NHL. It's becoming as fixed as pro wrestling.

[Erick Estrada]

Ottawa is such a weird team. Lots of talented individuals but the sum of the parts is junk.
