Like I said, the officials didn't impress me either night. I don't know
what the rules say an official can do in this situation, but the ref made
no effort to talk to the scorers table.
 
While on the topic of refs, can an expert answer this one?
 
Sunday, late in the third period a badger lost his stick, and during a
scamble in front of the net, threw the puck into the corner (*NOT* out
of the rink). The ref called a delayed panalty for delay of game. The
player was not pleased. The bench was not pleased. The fans were
very unhappy. Was this call correct?
