The Ref Fix (and not what you think)

[glucker]

All these Bruins fans seem very concerned with striking an opposing players head. Can I get their commentary on this "hockey play" by Marchand?

Look at that. No answer.

One if their illustrious fans told me it was just playful, and I just wasn’t ready for playoff hockey.

...and then promptly freaked out about a clean hit he thought was interference.


It’s insane. Edwards may be some kind of military test for brainwashing entire populations.

If the refs legit called “everything” the penalty boxes wouldn’t be big enough.

But after about three preseason games of this happening, the players would get the point and the game would start to look a lot different.

Not saying that would be good or bad. But I’m sure the players would learn to stop the cheesy behind-the-play jabbing and cross-checking and the lazy impeding hooks and picks, et Cetera.

They’d have to be clear on just what “everything” means. But it can be done.

The only reason I am against assigning refs to an entire series is someone has to get Tim Peel. I would be pissed if the team i root for was stuck with him.
