    “Florida is a better team 🤓” is that why they got fucking swept when the games where officiated fairly in the regular season?

    I'm learning that Florida fans are the most biased and bad faith fans in the league. No true hockey fan would condone Bennet's actions.

    EVERYONE talking about games being rigged, yet not 1 mention of the Draft being RIGGED !
    This started almost 20yrs ago under Buttman when a Broke and Bankrupt team got the #1 overall pik and the Following year got the #2 overall pik…
    WHAT TEAM AM I REFERING TO ?
    HINT…
    THEY MANAGED TO STAY IN THAT CITY AND WENT ON TO WIN A FEW CUPS……
    Ill be waiting for Responses

    OK I am not actually wearing a tinfoil hat here but I can see where some people could be convinced theres something sus going on with regards to the Panthers. Way way back in 2010 the VP of Hockey Operations for the NHL, Colin Campbell, sent the Director of Officiating emails complaining about a bunch of on ice calls and one referee he eventually got fired in particular. Many of the calls he was complaining about involved his son Gregory, these emails were one might say overly harsh and definitely profanity laden. This all came out and there was a little bit of a scandal about it but it wasn't big news outside of very invested hockey fans. Campbell apologized and kept his job, he is in fact still the Director of Hockey Operations. Gregory his son is no longer playing but he is the Assistant General Manager of the Florida Panthers.

    So one of the three most powerful executives in the league offices who is known for cursing out his subrodinates in person and via email for making questionable calls regarding his son is still in a position of power. And maybe, just maybe this might be going through the minds of those head officials as theyre looking over the tape of that goal to determine if it should be called back.

    The Panthers still deserved to win that game they were outplaying the Bruins but this isnt a good look for NHL officiating.

    Its a shame that only the teams with the meanest bullies on the roster get an advantage from such terrible officiating.

    Boston has been getting the golden boy treatment for over 10 years so now it's someone elses turn….

    I'd rather the ref's bury their whistles or keep calls consistent at the very least. In the case of Bos/Fla, 21-11 pp's, let's be real the panthers are no angels on the ice…

    FloriDuh’s ability to forecheck is because they are allowed to by the refs. The Bruins can’t because of dumb/bias calls like the Geekie interference call. Questionable at best. FloriDuh is allowed to make that same play all the time. The ice is tilted. And it’s because of the officiating.

    He obviously cross checks him into the goalie intentionally. He was also smart about it as to not make it too egregious and give just enough of a shove. But, the rule states that its illegal. Toronto should have overruled the on ice crew on this one.

    The refs ALL year have seriously been the biggest embarrassment in the history of NHL. They ALL need to be replaced.
