The Montreal Canadiens lost Game 1 of the Stanley Cup semifinals, and were in tough in a battle against the Vegas Golden Knights to tie up the series in Game 2.
Little did they know (or did they) that they would also have to battle the referees in Game 2 as well.
It really shouldn’t come as a surprise at this point that the officials, even at this point in the season, are terribly inconsistent.
The worst part of it is none of them have the guts to make the most obvious of calls against a team that is losing in the third period.
