“If you wanted a perfect game where everything was perfect - the officiating, offence, defence, goaltending, we’d roll back the tape on every play like we do on every game and we wouldn’t have any goals at all,” Walkom told TSN.
And in a quick poll conducted by TSN with 10 NHL general managers asking if video replay should be considered, all of them gave a flat-out no.

Blown calls are part of the game, and officials are human. It’s just something you have to account for.

This is a distrubing trend. these games that refs are blowing calls could swing 2 points the other way an be deciding final playoffs seends
if the nhl wants to send a message to refrees and linesman. dont let work playoff games.
