Officiating Woe’s—Caps vs Flyers Series
April 23, 2008 by Gizseppe
The league has a problem. I think they should look into the officiating and how it determined the outcome of this series. The Flyers struggled all series to score 5 on 5. They should check Koharski and Devorski for a Tim Donaghy type situation.
Or maybe, the only way Gary Bettman could make this series appealing to the classless fans of Philadelphia, was to help them out by making ill-advised calls for the Flyers, and not call the obvious one’s for the Caps.
In regards to Game 7, back to back penalties could’ve been called against the Flyers in the 3rd period, where a Caps player was hooked & cross-checked right infront of Mr/Mrs.Koharski-Devorski! If you’re not going to call a penalty the entire 3rd period (obvious one’s), don’t call it in OT. Let them play it out…I guarantee you the Flyers don’t score 5 on 5.
Tom Poti said it best, “It’s hard enough to beat the Flyers and Referee at the same time..”
P.S- Briere and Richards are cry babies. Go Habs!
