Just to go back to this hit on Raymond, it was late, out of the play in a vulnerable position, unnecessary and caused serious injury. Sounds a lot like Rome's hit yet there wasn't even a review? Come on.

Secondly, the league officials sat down with both GMs and Coaches and said they will call the after the whistle stuff, what happened? Nothing.

Last night, Thomas spears I think Daniel (might have been Burrows) in the nuts after the whistle behind the net. No call whatsover.

Henrik gets mugged by Chara and they both get penalties and Henrik gets a diving call? If you've followed the Sedins for the past 10 years or whatever since they came in the league you would know they don't dive. They don't. They'll stand there and get punched repeatedly in the face, as they showed last game, but they don't dive. Looking solely at the play, how can you say Henrik dove?
Burrows, Lapierre, Kesler dive or flip their heads back? Yes they do.

I"m not buying into the conspiracy theories, I'm not whining, I'm just pointing out facts. The officiating in this series have been the worst I've seen in years, absolutely garbage and I think it's because the refs are afraid to make the calls that they called in the regular season, round 1, 2 and 3 but for some reason don't. A penalty is a penalty is a penalty.

As somebody said earlier, this league is consistently inconsistent.

Game 7, Stanley Cup finals tomorrow. Doesn't get any better than this and here's to a good, well officiated game regardless of who wins.
