Allan Walsh took to X.com to explode on the NHL and its referees in a few different posts late last night. He thinks that the NHL's refereeing is terrible and that they need to be called out for it.
He followed up on this post by calling out Gary Bettman directly, saying that while he can silence coaches and GMs, he can't silence agents.
Walsh isn't the first person to call out the officiating in the NHL this year. While it is normal for people to be upset at the refs, it seems that this year there is a consensus that the officiating has gotten determinately worse. Even more, many have called out the NHL's response to having bad officiating.
It's unlikely that there will be a response from the NHL, as it is well known for protecting its Officials.
