How does Chris Lee still have a job?

[NewEraGM]

I found game 3 reffing in favour of Vegas. I found for game 4, it was not as biased in one direction or the other but just terrible non calls or calls on both sides. Poorly officiated and no one had any idea what was a penalty and what wasn’t heading into the 3rd.

Ah well... nothing we can do. Let's move on! We all know we should not even be here...but we are! That is the bonus!

If I was a rich Owner, I would be liquidating my CASH flow by harassing the NHL... LOL! But.. probably now.. since when you are rich... you keep your money... !

 

[powerstuck]

NHL refs are bad. That's nothing new. I guess new teams make it this far in playoffs, they attract fans that don't usually watch the whole game/watch while actually paying attention.

But trust me, this is nothing and unfortunately it's going to be the same next year.

Where was the Canadian Media before this series? Its only a big deal when the Habs are getting shafted on these calls?

Complaining about the refs is a national sport in Canada, where have you been?

 

[Skinnyjimmy08]

Reffing has always been all over the map.. this is nothing new at all... every regular season game, every playoff game fans from both teams feel shafted... unfortunately there is nothing nobody can do. Sometimes i agree 100% with fans of teams frustration and sometimes fans use it as an excuse

This exactly.. its insane!

This past little bit has been way worse than ever



This site loves ref excuses

 

[Nac Mac Feegle]

After so many years of "Montreal typical," it's refreshing to see the habs get the short end of the reffing stick for once.

Chris Lee and the referee: A match that brings back bad memories

 

[AndyWozniewski]

Equally? Nah.

The boarding is an automatic 5minutes early season. The high stick on Perry is an automatic 4 minutes.

Just with these 2 calls, it's 9 minutes of PP denied by these 2 refs.
I'm not even including the McNabb incident or all of these trips, hooks, obstruction, etc.

this is a one sided affair. Refs got Vegas' back and everyone knows it, even the GN's players.

I was only talking about game 4 specifically. In game 3 the Habs got f***ed hard with the high stick non call.

He shouldn’t have a job but I think the league is thin on good referees.

"Montreal Typical" is a figment of your imagination which gets debunked every single time it is brought up, so take your Tortorella conspiracies elsewhere.

Goto the 6:02 mark. The Leafs deal with this stuff ALL THE TIME. Why is bad officiating just now coming to light as an excuse for the Habs? The Habs literally got to round 3 with bad officiating and DOPS decisions alone.

 

[Captain97]

Didn’t Weber punch someone in the back of the head before this and didn’t get anything for it?

He retaliated to a no call on boarding on him and both ended up going to the box for unsportsmanlike.

Tim Peel. Chris Lee.

I vote for a ban of refs that have names that are only 2 syllables

They weren't complaining when it was happening to the Avs is what im saying. Craig Simpson gave it to Chris Lee good last night. Where was that energy a few weeks ago?

I watched the Avs - Knights series final 4 games. And the last 2 games were worse than anything I can remember in those. They were bad but Noone had a liece of their nose cutoff, Chris Lee watched Suzuki get punched in the face by someone who is like 5 inches taller than him no call.

The commentators rarely ever call out officiating and only when it's terrible.

McNabb is doing the same thing in this series that he was doing in last series. You don't think Mackinnon, Makar and Rantanen weren't getting punched in the face, hooked, held and tripped? Nobody seemed to care when it was happening to the Avs. Now everyone cares because its happening to the Habs. I agree the reffing in this series has been horrendous against the Habs I just wish this energy was around a few weeks ago.

I agree the Avs got jobbed, but noone had part of their nose cut off, I sure Avs got punched in the face but did we see a ref look directly at it, start a motion to make a call and then stop himself?

 

[Forsead]

At this point get Earl Hebner on the ice instead, at least the NHL will admit it's rigged.

We got to round 3 because the Leafs are soft as butter and the Jets were doomed since game 1, Shitfele or not
