NHL referees and accountability

(1/1)

Senturion:
I'm thinking that hell yeah, let the media eat the zebras just like they feast on the players and coaches after every game!

I would LOVE to see Michael Landsberg have 4 of them on OTR, oh yeah, what a show that would be!

bigtree:
You don't want to scare the refs out of making any calls whatsoever.

Senturion:
Christ, after that fiasco at the end of the 1st period tonight, I think that yeah,refs should DEFINITELY be held accountable!
Why do the Sens have to serve TWO penalties because the refs failed to inform them of the 1st penalty to Chara?  :evil:
I mean, has anyone seen that before?

Bonzai:
Nope never seen that before and you are right.  The reason a penalty was called is because Burns is the one who noticed it and brought it to their attention.  They couldn't admit to Burns they pulled a giant boner thus a penalty.  It would have been even more interesting had Chara scored or assisted on a goal prior to them correcting their mistakes.  

In the NFL they hold the officials accountable and admit their gaffs.  It's time the NHL started to do this too.

Cheers
