The NHL, the stupidest League ever.
Click the link BFS94 and they show actual call. Very cheap call. Looks so similiar of the crap we put up with when hes officiating...or attempting to.
Colin Campbell is investigating.

Looks like more than Campbell is involved in investigating.
So a question. What if the league knows (hypothetically) that more than Peel does this?
What if its unofficially sanctioned (again....hypothetically)? Now...what if Peel says..
"If I get disciplined, I sing like a canary!"? Could be interesting....hypothetically.

This isn't surprising in the least. However the fact there is now concrete evidence is huge.
As Bruins fans, we've seen far too many examples of refs (mis)managing games. Like how the league can watch Tom Wilson's hit on Carlo and suspend him 7 games, while the in-game officials didn't even see so much as a minor penalty. And who could forget the changing standards in the 2019 Final after Berube lashed out at the officials?

this merely confirms what we've all known for years, but it is going to be interesting to see how it all shakes out. I get that reffing a sport like hockey must be a very tough task, and that mistakes will happen. All i really want out of them is consistency, over a season would be great, but even just within each separate game would be a massive improvement. A trip 6 minutes in or with 2 minutes left should be called the same, regardless of the score or if one team has had 5 more PPs than the other.

league won't throw the book at peel, hes probably been calling make up calls for years for the league, peel could maybe write a book on it
Some honesty and humility instead of the arrogant attitudes that so many of them have would be nice too! They, like the league simply don't give a crap about how POOR officiating affects the game and the optics of their antics have gone on unchecked for so long. The league needs to make an example of him and if not fire him then give him the rest of the year and playoffs off without pay. He's a POS!

Already heard an excuse of what his point was...."he was just making up for a call he missed. It happens all the time".
I'm really not sure that reasoning helps.
"Ya, I was standing around with my head up my ass, missed a call, then decided to call anything so that team won't think I'm playing favorites".
Oh, ok.
Not sure why he exactly said it, but whoever was his partner that night must have been wondering why he made the call as it was so obvious a soft call. He then felt impelled to have to explain.

Would be a damn shame if this was the last we see of Tim Peel
The league is investigating, is it? Lol that’s rich. As though they aren’t fully aware - hell there’s probably internally distributed literature on it.
The NHL has never adapted to the 2 ref system well
The refs never know who they are working with until they show up in a city.
Peel is perhaps the best-known NHL ref simply because he is hated by every fanbase.

IDK. The notion and recognition that I missed one and am trying to even things up, while potentially a slippery slope, still suggests a foundational ideal that one shouldn't favor or unduly influence a game towards one team.
Now, if he said, "Marchand is a ________. I will usually look the other way when someone cheap shots him and call him for even marginal ticky-tack stuff." Well, then there is a real story/problem.
Professional football and hockey just move too fast. Officials are human. Most do their best to be objective. But "Personalities" can trigger bias. With the increase in sports gambling, being up-front is critical to at least the perceived integrity of the sports (i. e. a game). Ultimately, in the great words of Vince McMahon, 'we don't need to be regulated, we're entertainment.'

Call the game as it is played, game management has caused significant harm to the on-ice product. The refs have been the story far too often in this league.

Tim Peel looks like a weasel so is anyone really that surprised he's crooked?

The two-ref system hasn't worked, I've been saying that for 20 years now. I'll never understand why they want two people officiating whose roles are 100% identical. There should of been some division of labour between Ref #1 and Ref#2 so they aren't directly competing with each other to make calls.

I don’t wish for people to lose their jobs due to confirmed incompetence but I mean, if someone has to......
IT WOULD BE AWESOME IF IT WAS TIM PEEL.

Meanwhile, Chris Rooney has just called another absurd penalty on the Bruins to prove he isn't biased towards his hometown.
Not suprised in the least at this, have been saying this for years.

If you listen closely you can hear the nhl’s Ministry of Truth slithering out of their holes.
Think it Timothy. Don’t say it.
