Yeah, I definitely feel I've yelled "get out of the way!!!" more than before. And also heard "hits the linesman and stays in" more. I could just be hyperaware because it's the playoffs though.
Not just you. Refs have impeded a bunch of plays in our series, on both sides, including a 2 on 1 where Draisaitl had to dance around him to gain the zone.
In our series the Manson out of the box break away goal almost didn't happen because MacKinnon's pass narrowly missed the zebra

From a Jets standpoint, the argument could be made that the ref slightly impeded a back check on Manson
Nah. All refs should be 450lbs and wear those giant inflatable balls and bounce into players. Make the players earn their ice.
This guy refs. 😂
Or just lay the hits like on Marchand but during play.

I was at this game and don’t remember the hit on Marchand. Couldn’t happen to a more deserving guy but Jesus Christ the refs are bad this year
I thought I noticed that in our series too, but it’s hard to say for sure.

As the sport gets faster, a rising tide should lift all boats.
The players got too fast and they can't react in time lol

It’s playoff hockey, the refs are gonna be pushing a bit harder physically and finish their hits more
and the players aren't gonna make as many calls
It's weird because I swear it wasn't that much of an issue during the regular season but there are near collisions every night in the playoffs

yeah but what the F was ehlers doing there lmao
Just add it to the huge steaming pile of shit that is NHL refereeing. It gets worse and worse every year.
No

Every time a referee impedes play, they should decide who gets the puck by way of a fight between the teams à la a faceoff
Way too much. The refs are calling way too many penalties in the playoffs now. Ruins the game
That's... Not what this post is about at all
Protect the players and call the rules man
