Bettman Rigs Game Tells Refs..Make Sure Hurricanes Play Half the Game Shorthanded
When asked about it Bettman (NHL commissioner) said ” We can’t have some team from… what is it North Carolina sweeping one of the staples of NHL Hockey like the Devils” Wow. “I was just doing what I was told” said one Ref.
Brodeur apparently not only whined like a little baby to the media after getting stomped on by the Hurricanes in the first 3 games, apparently he put some pressure on NHL managment. It sure worked for baby marty.
Well based on the number of penalties called on the Hurricanes He got his point accross. Link to the boxscore Take a look at Period 2… wow it can be pretty difficult to play when you are down a man almost half the game. I know there were some legit calls but I saw more than a few questionable ones, there was one point where it was 7 in a row against Carolina… OK. I know there is some strategy to calling penalties but that is riduclous….
Now I have to go to a game on Mother’s Day and watch the Hurricanes Take the Series at home which is great but.. since the Canes Management Jacked up the prices so much for round 3 and 4. It could be my last game this year. Bittersweet.
Go Canes!
Oh and just in case you didn’t figure it out the 1st part is fiction.
