I used my "complain about the refs" card for the year but this game tells me this team isn't going to win in the playoffs. It is a pipe dream that all of this league talk about punishing refs for game management and cracking down on stick work will make them call the rules. If anything it will be just like tonight or worse in the playoffs.

Last word for me on the refs. I would have liked to see Tippett go old school. Completely lose it after the Drai call. Throw every water bottle, spare stick, someone's helmet. Heck, pick up little Yamo and toss him out there. Get thrown out and force the conversation. That and a series of non-calls then the penalty would be on every highlight show.


At some point you need to show you know it's BS. The league hates to get called out, but it is effective. They slap the coach on the wrist, but they don't want it to happen again so usually it does change things.

At least make some really pointed remarks. Politeness isn't working for us.


Can't be the players because the refs will just double down on you, they know they are like made men, untouchable, like in the NHL Inc. Mafia, where Colin Campbell is the Boss and Parrot is the top henchman.

Tippett could get suspended.

I think Holland needs to do it.

Otherwise it becomes an acceptable formula to nullify your star player, by saying nothing you're accepting it.


Take the suspension if you're the coach. Do what you need to do.

I'm fine with Holland doing it too but someone should say something. Instead:

Tippett was perplexed by the Draisaitl penalty in the third. He bites his tongue on the officiating.


Quote:

Jason Gregor
@JasonGregor

“It was an interference call from a bodycheck on a guy who just played the puck....I’m not going to comment much more on the refs..” Dave Tippett as he caught himself before stating what he likely felt regarding Draisaitl penalty.
