  1. Yeah, tell the coaches to simmer down. That’ll fix the reasons why they’re yelling at y’all.

  2. Maybe tell the refs to shut up as well? As soon as you hear them, they sound like asses that change the flow of the game to get back at players. Give them a better pay with more accountability.

    I like how this is a thumbnail of jay woodcroft like he’s the ambassador for yelling at refs mid game…

    How about telling the refs to get their shit together? Or just allowing the game room to stop a game for a missed penalty or something like that

    real talk tho in the first 3 devils games i’ve seen more egregious no-calls than i’ve seen over half a season.

    what the fuck is going on?

    Then tell the refs to stop enforcing unwritten rules and managing games because it makes the game worse. Also the DPS is in desperate need of an overhaul.

    Tell the refs to stop stupid game management and get some damn consistency.

    Fans, media, players, coaches, GMs and even owners have all been publicly critical if NHL Officials.

    This is like if the bus driver sided with the unhinged vagrant urinating on people in the back of the bus.

    god forbid we see some human emotion or read profanities on someone’s lips.

    no everything must be sanitized, beeped, and blurred.

    How about tell the refs to be better at their fucking jobs lol

    Orrrrrrrr….

    Get better refs, tell refs to stop influencing games, deciding outcomes, and playing favorites.

    Fix your own problem by telling the officials to call the rules and only the rules.

    Just because refs “evening out” or “balancing” the games has been the historical norm, doesn’t make it right.

    We’re all pretty sick of it.

    Don’t complain about how your refs are treated unless you are also committed to fix what’s broken.

    Have they tried not fucking up if they don’t want to get yelled at for fucking up?

    oh, fuck you NHL. issue isnt the optics of coaches blowing up (see baseball) its the refs stinking and having no accountability. Let the curses fly.

  14. The refs also need to simmer down, no one watches for the refs and some act like they are the show…

    Saw Berube laying into the ref for missing a major penalty while the players is sitting there bleeding. If they can’t take the heat for their fucks ups they need to go be a cashier at hobby lobby. Players coaches front office hear about it when they are wrong. Refs aren’t special or immune.

  16. Maybe if the NHL released referee performance cards like they do for umps in the MLB, we might get better officiating. I watch games from teams I don’t care about to see and man the reffing isn’t just bad for my team.

  17. As a ref I will say less berating makes me perform better. But at the same time, the refs negligence has been so bad it’s a threat to the players this year. I honestly don’t blame the coaches at all.

  18. Then refs should keep their mouth’s shut as well.

    Alternatively, perhaps the refs could try not consistently being flaming bags of dogshit at their jobs
