Considering one avalanche player stepped on another’s stick, I can’t say as I blame him for his confusion here

I love how the refs got together after to discuss it.
And were like, “meh, fuck that guy” 😂😂

Lav charging through the bench is hilarious

This is why challenges should be allowed on penalties if things are this badly called. Also why refs need to be fired if they can’t even get this call right and determine with video what happened. This call literally is rigging the game.

I don’t see anything wrong with this. /s
In all honesty though, the refs seem really rusty tonight.

Refs are still hung over from the all star break. You suck strpes

I see the refs used their break to brush up on how to fuck games up. Really sharpened that tool.

Refs have been dog shit across the board this season.

And the NHL wonders why fans think the officiating is horrible. Look at this « episode » of their officiating. They could have fixed it and they chose not to.

Am I surprised by the horrid penalty call, after Colorado tripped their own teammate? Not at all, these are NHL refs after all.
Am I surprised that there wasn’t immediately an equally egregious make up call within 30 seconds? Yes, yes I am, these are NHL refs after all.

Another “worst call of the year” contender

How do you review that and uphold it?
Never mind, I’ve seen enough of the season to know the answer to that…

This is why I don’t get too invested in professional sports. It’s way too easy for refs to manipulate games.

I need a lip reader, wtf exactly we’re they discussing. Whether they would look worse if they call it back or not?
DarkAgeMonks
Maybe teams should have ability to challenge incompetence.

The man broke his own ankle wtf
NY-Black-Dragon
That’s a bullshit call

The Lavvy Lunge is rarely seen. Wait to go, zebras

I still don’t understand why they didn’t just correct it when everyone in the arena is staring at the replay of the avalanche player accidentally tripping his own teammate
TangeloOld3070
I mean we are getting consistent reffing at least. Consistently bad that is. Like it’s so obvious that the NHL is fucking rigged

Is Angel Hernandez an NHL ref now? 😂
MontEcola
Total respect for Lafreniere. Bad call, and he does not lose his shit over it. He lets the coach do that for him.

Did the refs come to an epiphany and say, “Let’s reverse this because we have a chance to not look like crooked fixed clowns,” or was it, “Honk-honk: BuLlShIt cAlL cOmInG Up!”

The two referees system, working as well as ever.

They seriously didn’t reverse this call? I’ve seen them reverse calls before so I know they can. stuff like this makes me hate sports. so stupid.

At full speed at ice level I could see how he could get the call wrong. What the fuck is the point of 10,000 cameras, a command center in Toronto the rivals nasa, live communications all over the country if they can’t say “hey that was wrong cancel the penalty”
