Time for another bogus poll! @I am the Liquor
Refs noticeably called more penalties in favour of the Oilers last night, even against Team Hollywood. I even mentioned it in the GDT. The Oilers NEVER drew that Drai penalty or McDavid penalty late in the game before.
Is it because:
- Refs hated Chia
- Refs hated McLellan
- NHL realized they dodged a major bullet with McDavid’s injury last year and put a stricter mandate on calling fouls on him
- Holland and the refs have a “friendly” relationship
Whatever the reason, I think the tide has turned here.
