Personally, I could stand less bandwidth devoted to official-bashing, which can not promote (college) hockey in any way that I can see. Much of it is sour grapes and much concentrates on calls that went against "my team" without being able to recognize that some calls went FOR "my team". I wonder if we couldn't improve the game by giving recognition to those that have done a good job and let their names become well-known ( I recognize that there are occasionally comments about good jobs, but not very often. An "Official of the Week" would be nice, but I think intractable, but we could compile a list of noteworthy achievements (a single call or complete game) that would identify those who have done a remarkable job in a game so fast that spectators miss a lot of the play that officials are "supposed to see". Anyway, I'd like to see such a list once a week, or as apprpriate. We might ba able to point out some officials that other officials could learn from, thereby improving the game. -glen-
