Worst officiated game I ever watched. It got worse as game went on. Terrible calls on both teams, nearly all phantom call.Refs would not let the kids play.Never saw any 5 on 5 hockey. Didn't recognize any of the refs.
New to this place. Howdy. Not new to PC hockey.
3 of the 4 officials for the game were there for a few games last year. The only new one to me is Antipin. Agreed on the number of penalties. Some were correct calls, most of them could have been ignored to play on. Koharski especially seemed to be quick with the calls on both teams. I've never seen a game like this. And of course we can't have a home game without a goal review.
It'll take some time for this team to get it together but the young kids looked really good in their first official game. Hawkey was a little shaky but played just well enough. Anxious to see Bjorkqvist, what he can do when he's back at full strength.

This was my fourth college game of the season. This is how tight the refs are calling it this season. It is very tough to watch as this game was pretty clean with very little choppy play.
Are we that undisciplined or is the officiating horrible?

I see 10 penalties on each team. Part of a painful crackdown initiative this year. It's not hockey so hopefully players catch on and refs let up a bit.
There were no egregious calls. Too many hits from behind. Early season sloppy hockey. PC looked slow. The officiating was fine.
The officiating is fine but this type of officiating the last two nights is going to turn away fans. The calls that are being made aren't even remotely close to penalties. The first penalty of the night, I never saw anything close to a slash.
