VIDEO: Missed call costs the Bruins AGAIN!

Whether it be the penalties called against them or goals being called back, the referees are certainly taking a piece out of the Bruins this season. This time the referees unwillingness to call even the most blatant of penalties cost the Bruins dearly. In the second period of Monday night's tilt against the Anaheim Ducks, Matt Bartkowski was battling in front of goaltender Tuukka Rask with the Ducks Devante Smith-Pelly. Smith-Pelly clearly grabs a hold of Bartkowski's stick in front with a referee looking right at the pair. A shot from the point came and beat Rask to make the game 2-1 Ducks. The Bruins were unable to recover and lost by an eventual score of 3-2. It really makes no sense at all. This was so blatant and yet there was no call for the B's. There seems to be a clearcut case of favouritism among the referees. Either that or they have to have their eyes checked.
