[GT] Flames vs. Ducks Dec. 29

[BigBrodieFan]

The ref yells 'Two minutes for roughing' - why doesn't Kesler get 'Two minutes for instigating'- it makes no sense-

[ResAlien]

I feel like I do the superintendent Chalmers "WIDEMAN!" yell far too often whilst watching games.

You can't be serious. Call me the next time Tkachuk routinely targets the head of a the smallest player on the ice but refuses to answer the bell.

It's now been years that we've seen Anaheim push the limits on penalties without a response from the Flames and we keep getting killed.


The refs aren't going to make the calls. They haven't done so the last 5 years so stop thinking they will.

Gaudreau gets drilled with both Ferland and Engellend on the ice, and all Kesler gets is a headlock. If you're going to take a penalty, make it worth it. Send the message for once. Please for the love of God respond like you give a damn.

They score here I hope that's exactly what happens... time to lose a battle to win a war... just come out and punish them. Just glare at the refs for each call.

This is why I rarely watch games anymore. NHL reffing has been absolutely garbage, but since the Wideman incident... seriously the NHL is a joke now.

And when Tkachuk does do something he either answers the bell, or gets called on it. Kesler gets/does neither, he's Mr Tough Guy against the smallest player in the league hen hides behind Getzlaf or the refs

[dissentowner]

Another goal by the officials

[direwolf]

Thanks refs. Luckily there's still plenty of time left. Flames need to man up here and get back into this game.

[GirlySports]

make up call, so obvious after damage already done

Pretty hard when the Refs only see it one way... Anaheim is allowed to do whatever they want and never get called

How?

Invent a time machine, go back in time and prevent Wideman from hitting a ref? As when reffing is overwhelmingly and consistently ####, what can the team do about it?
