The one thing I hate is the "balancing out" argument. No it doesn't. They scored off a dive that should have been a 4v4 situation. The only way to really balance that would be to wave off the goal. Where was our 4min power play that could have won us that game? Did we get one later on I missed?
The b.s. icing call at the end, with 7 seconds left? You really think you can "balance" that out later? How by adding time to the clock?
The missed trip on wheeler when he was driving to the net, could have scored, wasn't called how do you balance that out?
You can't balance out poor officating. It impacts the game, impacts the players and more then likely it determines the outcome.
Saying it will balance out is saying that bully who steals your lunch money karma will get him so I don't have to do anything.
