Hilarious ref call of a penalty

[PerpetualTankYear]

Hahaha never seen that version of giving him the business. I always thought that referred to this video:

I seem to recall the official being a bit dramatic with a fighting call in the Sabres/Ducks game Thursday night, but was at the arena so couldn't really replay it. Dunno who it was.

I was there and a couple of times that Ref added a growl and some drama to what he was saying for sure. I'm pretty sure it was Francois St. Laurent. I remember checking the number after his second dramatic call. #38

Only RDS that picked up the announcement of the penalty, NBC didn't show it.

McCauley is an idiot. He should just do his job and stop posing for social media.

 

[Buckets and Gloves]

love it.

Nothing wrong with refs showing a little personality... I always prefer the umpire who gives the big moves for a strike out too

How dare someone show personality. Didnt he get the memo about how the NHL is super serious business and fun isnt allowed?

Debbie downers. Debbie downers everywhere!

I love this. Wes is a great ref, and I hope he stays forever.

I think it was a typo by the production crew but was very funny

I checked out this game on NHL Vault a year or two back for the sole reason to see if that caption was real. It wasn't.

I think it is hilarious, and I could watch those vids over and over.

Not like you hear it multiple times a game.

 

[DeYarmond Edison]

Actually really funny.
