I guess it's chic for Lightning announcers to be just as inconsistent
with the Refs as the refs are inconsistent with hockey in general.
1st Period -- Chief is bitching and moaning about all the calls. He
refers to them as a joke.
3rd period -- Chief is bitching about the lack of calls. He refers to
them as a joke
I'm all for rule enforcement, and I know there should be harping about
how terribly inconsistent refs are right now... But I'd prefer the
color commentator enlighten the viewers instead of moaning and groaning
about things. There are so many dynamics to the game that aren't being
accurately covered IN GAME by Bobby Taylor (or Dave Mishkin for that
matter) that it's a disservice to the fans.
Yeah, people were pissed off about the Kubina call in overtime... But I
was pissed off by the perpetual crying game from start to finish.
