I'm writing this in response to the post about Mike Grier and how BC
was trying to goad him in to getting penalties. I agree, Mike is to be
commended for trying to skat away from fights, but I don't feel that any
ref(no matter how bad he is) will give a penalty to a guy for doing
nothing. Mike had to have done something. With the 10-minute
misconduct, maybe it was for something he said to a ref rather than
something he did to an opponent. With the call when the defenseman was
holding Grier's stick and Mike yanked him down, that shouldn't have been
a penalty on Mike but maybe it looked like a hook to the ref. Hockey
players are great actors as well and I have seen many dives and faked
injuries in order to get the call. My thought is that the BC defenseman
had Grier's stick strategically placed to make it seem like a hook when
he fell. I know I didn't see any of the incidents, but it's just hard to
for me to see a ref calling a penalty against somebody when they didn't
do anyhting at all. My $.02 worth.
