Game 3 : Too many men on the ice
There\'s some interesting points on either side actually.
If indeed it comes out that the Too Many Men was noticed by the officials and not called - well that\'s a HUGE issue. Pretty much would cast doubt on the officiating as a whole. I can accept that. Whether that happened or not is up for debate.
I tend to be a bit more trustworthy then perhaps I should be but perhaps some of that comes from being a ref in a couple different sports and knowing how extraordinarily difficult it can be.
I wonder if there are any other examples (playoffs or otherwise) of a too many men penalty not being called for that length of time.

ok...as I mentioned I didn\'t see it, so I think I need clarification at this point. letnry\'s response confuses me a little. I thought this 21 second too many men infraction happened right at the time that Pitt scored their go-ahead goal. Is that not the case?

I think that if refs make MAJOR mistakes in big games such as the final. They should be held accountable, and not be allowed to ref in the final again. Now since there\'s only few refs in the NHL, maybe they should have something like a suspension for a ref or whatever. That way, the ref is held accountable, and we won\'t see AS many mistakes as we do now.
A quick search on the interwebs revealed no news about this other than on this site. Does the sports world know about this???

As an interested aside, had they scored a goal with too many men on the ice, it would stand and it is not reviewable. Rule 39.4

I agree with you Shao, that the NHL doesn\'t care about the opinion of the hard-core fans, especially in Canada. I feel that they take us for granted.That would make sense, but I don\'t think the NHL cares THAT much about the game and the opinion of die-hard fans.

NHL hockey is only a major sport in Canada. In the US, it\'s behind many many sports including high school football (I\'m not kidding - I\'d have to research the reference, but I did read it somewhere).
This constant change the big wigs try every year isn\'t helping the NHL win any new fans as there are so many rules that even the hard-core fans don\'t know what\'s a penalty anymore.

Having recently moved to the US I can confirm this. Every year the Stanley cup final ratings are lower than the Scripp\'s spelling bee.... its a disgrace
