I'm a sucker for the classics.
Every team has nights like that, where you are wronged by the refs. We all think it happens to just our team as well, when in reality, it happens to everyone or it happens not at all. Contrary to popular belief, the refs on ice are not, in fact, zebras. They are human beings, and we as humans are doomed to make mistakes. Hell, even Zebras are bound to make mistakes! Conspiracy, I think not. It came out after the fact the "goal" was in fact ruled a no goal on the ice after the refs conferred, they went to Toronto to confirm and the outcome we all know. Sorry Columbus, nothing against you (well, maybe a little), maybe next year ...
