There's no evening out. A blown call is a blown call. Also, its a good PR push for everyone to get on Crosby and start this whole he's crying to the refs junk.
Crosby openly admits he was tough on refs in the early going but I played hockey for 18 years at a pretty damn decent level. If you're as good as he is, you're going to get hacked and its a piss off. I'm not going to get into comparisons but if you open the game up that kid crushes everyone.
Crosby said something pretty accurate as well, he said mic me up and mic up Callahan then follow us the whole game, see who's chirping the refs more.
I love the Rangers and I actually go to enough games. There are WAY more guys who spend WAY more time crying to the refs. But lol, coaches need to find SOME way to shut Crosby down so this big campaign to label him a whiner is being pushed by a few of the big mouths who are trying to push their own agenda.
LOL though, he used to whine a lot 5 years ago and NOW you slam him? Also, Laviolette (big mouth) Tortorella (biggest mouth of any coach who constantly whines and gets fined) then Milbury (horrible GM, big mouth, just got charged for attacking a child at his kid's hockey game)
These are the guys leading the way on the propaganda you're buying? C'mon, lol don't follow all the talk. Least of all don't start telling me what you see, we all see it - he complains but its nothing compared to a LOT of guys you never hear about.
Offsides are black and white btw. With an icing, there's a bit more grey - you have guys who chase it down, then you have to worry about who touched what and when. Get ready for more of this since the league just picked up the new rule.
