I bet the league sighed a massive relief that the Oilers won. I doubt it will happen but I hope those refs got an earful from the league. Embarrassing.

I disagree, I think that result was exactly what the league wanted. Parity is the primary goal. The refs are there to manage the game and make sure that games stay close and as many as possible go to OT because then everyone gets at least a point and the standing stay close. We've been yelling on here forever about how the Bettman point is dumb and that having some games worth more than others doesn't make any sense. The league has obviously heard those same complaints and have made the decision that they like things the way they are.
Stuff like this has been going on too long to believe that it's anything but intentional.

You could be right. The game was already a very exciting, close game. Not calling a blatantly obvious, potentially result altering call, won't have taken away from the fact it was a back and forth game that was down to the wire.
