BigTed3 Posted March 4, 2018 Report Share Posted March 4, 2018 Stephane Auger (former NHL ref and now commentator for TVA) wrote a piece on TVA's website about Julien's complaints against the officiating last night... on the one hand, he agrees the refs screwed up in not awarding Byron a penalty shot. He also agrees that Nash should have been penalized for exaggerating the supposed high stick by Juulsen. However, he adds the following two points: 1. On the delayed penalty that put the Habs down two men, he says it was perfectly normal for the refs to not blow the play down until they saw the Habs recovered possession and got an advantage from it a few seconds later. This suggests that it's not the act of the penalty but the consequences of it that matter, which is NOT how the rulebook is written. 2. Auger then finishes by stating that if you take away the Drouiin delay of game, which the refs had no control over, that the number of penalties to the two teams was about equal and therefore we can conclude that the refs had no impact on the outcome of the game. This is also a vicious non-truth. It is ridiculous that the NHL believes that if the penalty totals are about equivalent that the game was fairly called. If Team A (let's call them the Bruins) commits 18 fouls against the rulebook and two hits to the heads that should have been called majors but weren't and ends up with 5 minor penalties against; and if Team B (the Habs) commits 12 fouls against the rules and ends up with 5 minors against too, the NHL's conclusion is that this is fair, when it is clearly not. When will this corrupt league get it into their heads that it's not just the number of calls against each team but the number of ignored calls against each team that matters as well. Auger's statements simply confirm the league's stance on things like this is general stupidity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So if one team doesn't get any penalties the other team shouldn't either? Laughable. It amazes me alot of fans think the same way! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jennifer_rocket Posted March 20, 2018 Report Share Posted March 20, 2018 Recently I've had an additional frustration with the league. We've all had issues with the officiating. Fans of every organization would probably comment that NHL referees don't do a great job and the league should work on improving that aspect of the game. However, when it comes to goaltender interference, I find the constant whining and complaining from coach's and player's is even worse. The subjective bias on display when these people moan is disgusting. I see examples of clear goaltender interference on highlights being called/overturned correctly resulting in rolled eyes and whiny locker room interviews. It just turns me off from the game even more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The league is going to turn this game into no touch kids hockey , may as well put the "stop" signs on the back of the jerseys! No sense in even teaching kids to keep their head up or pay attention anymore! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The guy is cutting across the center of the zone leaning looking down at the puck. Somehow it's the defenseman's fault. It was almost full on shoulder if he had his head up at all he wouldn't be hurt and it's no penalty. I understand "safety" but this is getting to be women's hockey or pre teen now.

I understand "safety" but this is getting to be women's hockey or pre teen now. It's a tough call and I tend to agree, to me it looks like Doughty's intent is to go for the shoulder and he actually seems to make (minor) contact with the shoulder first before hitting Carrier's chin/head. Even though the initial contact is not relevant according to the rule book, I'm not sure that's really worthy of a suspension to be honest.
