It was a terrible call. Would he have gotten a double minor for embellishment if the stick had drawn blood?

So what?
I was at the game, saw the replay, obviously refs ****ed it up, why belabor the point? The crowd was ready to riot, for Chrissake!
I would have done the same thing if I was a ref. **** that noise. Don't need to rile the crowd anymore than it already is.

It was the worst I ever heard it Ziggy, the fans were incensed. I would have done the same thing if I was a referee.

In watching the replay, the referee was directly behind Quick and didn't see the stick to the neck.
He never had a chance to see the stick in the neck, so it was just a missed call.

You don't get the reaction on NBCSN that you get when you are in the stands. It was bad...and maybe I haven't attended as many games as SLang, but for sure I can't recall ever seeing anything but hats thrown onto the ice in Los Angeles!

By the way, Wes McCauley was the referee who called both the embellishment penalty on Quick and also blew the quick whistle on Quick's fumble of the puck in the third period.
So there is that.

If you are the referee and you are behind the goalie like he was and screened from that stick you make the same call.

I'll order you a red cap and a Speedo.
Why so flippin' pissy? Jesus Christ.
Clearly, if this incident was such a moot point, why continue posting?
I don't recall refs ever not allowing a replay on the jumbotron.
I wasn't at the game tonight nor was I shooting it, so I asked all of you guys who happened to go what us at home may have missed.
Don't be a Canucks fan.

All this means is that the Refs are being swayed by the media and by either team's players' quotes about certain players (e.g. Sharks players about Quick's "diving"). It's a bunch of ****ing horsecrap and it pisses the **** out of me.
I will be absolutely flabbergasted if the league doesn't allow refs to look at replays for this kind of crap next season. What the **** do I care if it slows the game down just a bit? Make the right ****ing call. I know it'll incite discussion about video review for other parts of games (goalie interference, for example), but these are changes that need to be made. NHL looks bush-league in this very aspect.
That happens all the time. I think the other leagues actually have a policy against it.
The rest of your post I think I will ignore. Canucks fan, indeed.
It sure looked like embellishment to me behind the play. I don't have a problem with the call.
If he had the benefit of replay, obviously he doesn't call embellishment.

Replays would certainly slow down the game a lot, but let's be honest, the NHL has a huge problem this post season with officiating.
All fans can agree that just want the right and honest call.
