Against a physical team like Belfast that is good news, less chance of injury to our players due to his incompetence

One of the poorest refereeing displays I've seen in a long time. His early slashing call on Haines set the tone for the rest of the game and he called just about everything possible, including some that made me wonder if i was watching the same game. Should add that the calls were against both teams.

I offered him a shot of my specs after he made another stupid call (that only he seemed to have seen) but he declined. I guess he`s maybe waiting on his own getting delivered

He was very quick to blow the whistle but he was much improved in the 3rd and I think only 4 calls were unwarranted:
Zach getting 2 for slashing when Keefe was slashing and pushing him but Zach was doing nothing Tommy getting called Kneeing for a Hip Check Keefe being called for elbows for a great open ice hit Casey for holding in the corner.
The others were all penalties by the letter of the law but refs usually let some go to aid the flow of the game. The first period was very static for that reason. However, he was better than Wilson who just doesn't make a call and in my opinion if your not going to make a call why you out there.

The call for Keefe's elbow was spot on. It nearly took his head off. Otherwise the refereeing was poor from all three officials. Have lost count of how many offsides Mr. Flockhart has missed this season.
