Game 7 Penalties?! In This Economy?!

On this week's #RefsPodcast:

  • NHL Stanley Cup Playoff Round 2 officials announced!
  • Double-review in Vegas as the Minnesota Wild's Ryan Hartman has a goal reviewed for a distinct kicking motion... and called back after an offside challenge.
  • No penalty but a 2-game suspension to the Panthers' Aaron Ekblad for a hit on the Lightning's Brandon Hagel.
  • Major penalty to Florida's Niko Mikkola for boarding Zemgus Girgensons.
  • Blues' Brayden Schenn whistled for interference for a hit that injured Winnipeg Jets' Mark Scheifele.
  • A pre-game Nylander mix-up nearly costs the Toronto Maple Leafs thanks to Rule 5.2.
  • Colorado's Jack Drury gets called for a rare third-period playoff penalty for an obvious faceoff tackle
  • Twice, players cover the puck in the crease at Kings/Oilers, and twice no penalty shot is awarded; twice, it should have been.
  • Should the playoffs be called the same way as the regular season?
  • Allan Walsh is not happy with playoff officiating.
  • The Kings' Warren Foegele gets away with a little abuse of officials on liney Libor Suchanek...
