I'm quite sure this is not the last of this story... "It was personal. It started in warmup, before the anthem," Burrows said of Auger's penalty calling. "(Auger) came over to me and he said I made him look bad in Nashville on the (Jerred) Smithson hit and he said he was going to get me back tonight." http://www.tsn.ca/nhl/story/?id=305786 |

If the official really told him he was going to get payback during warm ups for something that was out of Burrows' control, I don't think that will be the case. This is obviously going to be a very interesting situation. |

Quote: "I'm not the type of guy to make excuses - I mean, that's not who I am, but I've never seen anything like it in my whole career," Luongo said. "That was the first time I've seen calls like that, especially when the game is on the line."

It was a bad call but the NHL hates it when players say bad stuff about officials. |

If these allegations are true, I think this ref is going to lose his job. |

Why does it warm my cockles to see a ref called out for bias and humiliated in public? Love this story...absolutely love it. |

Seems pretty elaborate to me, for someone who is just "whining" about poor officiating. And other guys backing him up? If it's true, I hope this ref gets his head on a pike for the other douchebag refs out there who think they have the right to make games swing in their favor and use penalties for their own personal issues. |

The ref should be canned immediately if the allegation is true. Burrows is not whining at all. He is justified. Bettman should not be "backing up" anyone who is so grossly tainting the sport. |

well, if the allegations are true, bettman will remove him and not back him up. but if its just sour grapes, then my previous post stands true. |
