coaches need to form their own union.

Get a decent collective agreement.

Players fines max out at $5,000

Interesting idea, but coaches have such little job security that it’ll be a rotating carousel of who’s in and who’s out.

The only thing they don't seem to do is advocate on behalf of their members.  :bigblush:

Out these scummy referees:

 

The NHL has fired referee Tim Peel following an investigation into a hot-mic incident during a game between the Nashville Predators and Detroit Red Wings Tuesday night.

The incident occurred as the broadcast was heading to commercial and Peel was caught on a live microphone explaining how he wanted to penalize the Predators to, presumably, create a more even match.

 
Maybe if you're a mic'd up ref, you shouldn't express how you wanted to call a penalty against a team earlier in the game, changing how you ref the rest of the game. "It wasn't much but I wanted to get a &^@#in' penalty against Nashville early in the..." #Preds #LGRW

"It wasn't much but I wanted to get a f—in' penalty against Nashville early in the...” and then the poor producer cut it off just as it was getting good.

Assuming that the referee was discussing the most recent penalty, this was regarding a Viktor Arvidsson trip of Red Wings defenseman Jon Merrill just under five minutes into the second period.

It is uncertain if it was pure pity laid upon the hopeless Red Wings — the score was only 1-0 in favour of the Predators at that point — or simple ineptitude and the underlying narrative of referees forming the game to their control. No matter the reasoning behind it, it was laid out in crystal clear audio quality that a referee was attempting to play some part in the end result of the game.

That was a year ago but truth be told, they all do this, Peel was just the scapegoat for being dumb about it and speaking openly with a hot mike.

 

The fact that Peel was speaking so openly about this to fellow referee Sutherland indicates that this behaviour is perfectly normal and acceptable among the NHL reffing fraternity.
