[quote:527e5]Another example is Ferences Charging penalty with 1 minute left in game 7 last night. As I said before, penalties should not be called when the game is on the line.[/quote:527e5]

I'm not a Hockey fan, but I gotta disagree with you here. In all sports when the "game" is on the line - all calls have GOT to be called, seemingly frivilous or not. Not calling the call could result in a team that was within striking distance, being tossed all the further back. Thats how important these things are. In basketball - rock: - sometimes it comes down to that last call, a foul on a shot that misses by a half inch, but isnt called just costs the other team the game. I've even seen announcers champion this "omg this is the playoffs how are you calling that obscure call" but then get pissed when other calls dont get made. I'm for call it when you see it regardless of the situation. Part of sports IS exploiting calls to your benefit.
