Refs have a tough challenge in D1 hockey. There is a big gap between the standards of international (US/Cda games) and D3 hockey (if someone goes down, call a penalty). If you can, watch a replay of the Clarkson / RPI game where the refs let a lot of tough hits go. Clarkson didnt seem to like the approach but I think that it was close to the international standard.
Stone apparently said the refs are easing off, as if it were a policy thing.
But, what’s with the whistle at 00:00? Ignore the boarding and call out the tardiness?
