Dallas 5 game losing streak now out of the playoffs, they are a one line team with very average goaltending, thinking they will be hard pressed to get in.

Just put a ref team in Toronto to supervise the reviews. Make them part of the ref union. It's not rocket science.





It would be great if they would show the behind the scenes discussion or at least release statements about why all the calls go the way they do. It would help it seem a lot less random, where two similar plays are called differently they can just explain why they were called differently.

Good suggestion.

Having the same people making the decisions all the time will improve consistency. Making them experienced refs and members of the club should make the refs happy. More jobs for union members. Everybody wins.

Big game for us

It doesn't mean a lot other than if the Kings win we might face the Avs instead of the Wild. We're pretty much locked into second. It matters more for those other team. Kings to make the playoffs. Wild to not be a Wild Card.

ABSOLUTELY!!! it's all about turf... growing their business model... growing their union's size, revenue, strength... welcome to the human race.

What's your excuse?
Looking at calgary's draft this year, you have to think some jobs are on the line.

If Chevy lottery protected our stats 1st rounder, how did cgy not do the same for Hamonic?

IIRC cgy has no 1st 2nd or 3rd, and no 2nd next year.

Edit: don't sit on Ari next year. They've put together a great run over the past, like, 20 games. If they can puck up a nice skilled draft pick and make some smart off season moves, they could be a bubble team next year.
