Can anyone explain why the refs went on strike in the 1988 playoffs after the Devils coach told the ref to "eat another donut you fat pig."
Yeah it was abusive but teams yell at the refs all the time (we probably don't hear 1% of the profanities) and make public complaints about the penalty calling standards (Canucks, Sabres this year). What was so special about that incident that made them go on strike?
