I think he couldn't be more right. For example, in baseball, a manager
can file a protest if he feels the umpire is misinterpreting or
misapplying the rule. Not an ordinary ball-strike or safe-out call but
an application of the rules. Someone else made the suggestion (I apologize
for not knowing the name but I accidentally deleted the message) that the
ref be allowed the reconsider his decision if he feels that would be
approprite, especially if he admits Greyerbiehl got onto the ice AFTER the
penalties
were handed out.
