Lol, reffing around the league is not consistent, and that is my point. Far more egregious calls have been let go. 

 

Anyway, you win, you're RIGHT ;)

Stretcher literally got punched behind the net seconds before the penalty. You can’t argue discipline is the problem when only one team is being held accountable for it 

Refereeing has to be changed via change in rules.

The league needs to do what football has done in Europe: make the stakes a LOT higher for misbehavior (red cards, yellow, etc.,) and make it clear what the limited avenues are for physical contact.  The NHL is living with the long tradition of allowing way way too much to go by.  Every single punch, push after the whistle, etc., should be penalized.  The players aren't stupid, they would adjust.  There is this stupid tradition of thinking of hocked as a "game of emotion."  If American football can ban fighting/police rough stuff, then we certainly should be able to.
