Fans asking for referee St-Laurent to be pulled immediately from series after ridiculous call!
NHL officiating is the worst… This is the ultimate proof! Watch below:
In the second period of a very intense Game 2 of the second round series between Toronto and Florida, forward Evan Rodrigues went to the Panthers dressing room AND was given an embellishment minor after getting hit in the numbers by Scott Laughton.
First time for everything…
Insiders, pundits and fans were shocked by the call, with the latter group asking for referee François St-Laurent to be pulled immediately from the series seeing that he cannot make a right call.
Since the incident took place, the referees and NHL officiating have been trending on social media.
And let me tell you, it ain’t pretty… Even some Maple Leafs fans are arguing the embellishment call.
Towards the end of the second frame, Rodrigues came back to the ice. After 40 minutes, Toronto is in the lead, 3-2.
