Seems cheap by the ref to get physical. The player can't throw back, not only because he's all padded up but also because he'd get in way too much trouble.

My favorite hot mic moment was at a Ducks preseason game around 2009 or so. The ref announced the penalty then turned to the player and said,” if you put your stick in his nuts you’re getting a penalty every time!”

Arguing with a referee is useless. I mean, the final decision will always be the referee's. Some players are just bored and love wasting time, I guess.

This is about the only reason I wish Ireland (not just Belfast) had pro hockey teams. This kind of player-referee interaction in a proper Irish accent would be just priceless to listen to😂 (sorry, New England just doesn’t come close. Then at least Brooklyn/Newark or Siciliano/Pugliese would be awesome, too)

thank you for posting this i am a ref over 35 yrs did some pro games. and i normally dont swear at players. but we do give it back. beautiful.

Lmao...y'know, the refs in any sport catch crap for enforcing the rules but hockey refs are in an absolute class of their own. Some of them skate nearly as fast as the players and skate up and down the ice all game long, break up fights, get hit by the puck occasionally. My hat is off to them. They have to referee a game with some of the toughest, most hostile and eccentric athletes in all of sports, all in real time.
