Russo: Refs from game 4 vs Dallas (Chris Pollock and Garrett Rank) are not moving on to the 2nd round.
It’s telling the Game 4 refs from #mnwild series don’t move on, including the respected vet Pollock. Was told league felt the penalties on Foligno that caused 1-0 and 3-1 deficits were bad calls https://t.co/gOwF2qrKQo

“Was told league felt the penalties on Foligno that caused 1-0 and 3-1 deficits were bad calls.”
Excellent news, it keeps my ref bracket intact
“Everyone who is saying the refs were making bad calls are just mad they lost.”
NHL – “Yeaaaaaah. About that. We’re going to have those guys stay home for the rest of this.”
No surprise. Game 4 in the Wild series wasn’t even their only brutal game.
ALL BETTER!
They did their job. 🙂
Oh great. Now they get to hold that against us all next year
Sad news, you guys didn’t deserve that. All we can do is hope they get better, and know that they won’t
I will never understand the league blindly supporting every no-call that leaves a player injured, but will punish refs for actually making calls.
Tough to win a game when you are playing 5 vs 7.
I guess the Stars are going to have to try to beat the Kraken on their own.
Those calls were obviously bad, but wished the Wild hadn’t whined so publicly about officiating. Hard to win when you fail to kill penalties and don’t score on power plays.
Refs are human and mistakes will be made but when a 5 minute major is called and they review video of the play and get it even more wrong, that’s how conspiracies get started with refs fixing games.
Yes!!! More talk about the refs!!
Now they’ll have a chance to cheer on their favorite team, the Dallas Stars.
This is our Stanley Cup
Hopefully Garrett Rank’s next officiating stop is the Federal League…
They made plenty of bad calls for both teams. The main issue is the Wild couldn’t kill a penalty to save our lives so those got replayed a bit more.
They were just crap across the board.
