LD crosschecked to the ice, then takes a weak call himself. 4 zip for the refs against Edmonton Love the Oilers, but for decades I have hated this F'ing league. It is pathetic. Nothing has changed since the Bruins and Flyers tried to hog tie the dynasty Oilers to win games with the refs looking the other way. True. In those days though the team had players that could just go out and change the tone and energy of the game without necessarily changing the score. Play in kind given the officiating. This team doesn't appear to have that even by modern standards. So unless the guns are doing it for the Oilers, and they haven't made an appearance tonight (plus no traction due to the refs ensuring a lopsided game on teams)....and we see the snooze fest. I'm amazed that this club just lacks energy for the first half of most hockey games. It's appalling and its what's going to help bite the team on its arse.

I don't disagree they started slow but I think they have actually played OK 5 V 5. The Stars have done really well limiting good scoring chances.
I don't think I have complained about the refs this year, given I don't very often, but they have been brutal tonight.
