Yes. It is sorta part of the joke.

I'll never understand why they don't use Shorthouse for Saturday night games.

It’s the seniority shuffle.

I’m sure he would have called that huge Petey hit on Stutzle a lot better.

That was the weakest major penalty I've ever seen...what a joke

Insane call. He barely touched him and there was clearly no intent to injure

The refs were showing their recent sensitivity training lol.

Really overreaction to the potential injury which was an unfortunate fluke.

I'm really having a hard time justifying watching the NHL these days. It's (frank)ing garbage. Saturday Referee Night In Canada games are the worst of them with all the game management, officiating for league parity and bullpoop. The league is the least credible out off all sports in North America. It falls between a legit league and WWE imo.

Sports vs "sports entertainment". As soon as you start doing anything other than calling the game per the rules, it becomes entertainment, not a serious sport.

Boys are in tough tonight after a BS call. Oh well, Elias Pettersson is now the best player on the ice for either team, hopefully he can step up offensively.

Petey could of drawn 4 calls in that shift before they finally called one. Immediately followed by a call against Hogs for a touch with his stick.

This is Saturday night officiating to a T... NHL trying to keep the Sens in the game for their national broadcasted game.

Hogy probably prevented a high danger chance by taking the penalty but in the end it's still a 1-1 game. Speaking of Hogy, what a disappointment he has been. The guy should be taking this opportunity to prove his worth and most nights he's invisible.

Yep 5 and game for pushing.

NHL is becoming softer and softer by the year. There are maybe 5-6 teams (if that) that play hard Hockey all the time. Bloody sad what it's become.

What a play by Myers and a first point for Sasson!

Was hoping he get on the scoresheet so he could give the puck to dad in attendance.

Great take away followed by a smart move by Sasson to lose the man covering him to set up that beauty by Blue...

Get ready for more pressure from the refs,,,

Wow!! Teddy and DeBrusk stepping up let's gooooooo!!!!!
