Datsyuk in tears?

[Datsyuk in tears?]

There are no first and second lines anymore. It's 1A and 1B, depending on the flavor that the Kool-Aid is this week.

I like the ring of 1A and 1Z

My wife and I really wanted to go to one this year if they had it. It's pretty entertaining watching Datsyuk swing a bat! The last couple I have caught parts of on tv and have always thought it'd be a lot of fun.

[What can fans do?]

I hate to say this, but the honest answer is nothing.

That is sad if so. We are the reason the NHL exists. That link is the only thing I have found to offer some constructive critisicm. I don't think it's all the refs fault but they obviously need to work toward video review for the opposing team to challenge bad calls, be it penalties or goal reviews. I think NHL fans in general would be a lot less frustrated if some type of system would be used and I'd have lower blood pressure 8). It wouldn't take long for the refs to huddle up to the glass and review a call on a LCD screen from different angles if challenged by the opposing team. So if you happen to agree with me send the refs an email if you have a couple minutes of time. If we do it enough they'll either make a change or be eternally annoyed with spam.

[What can fans do?]

Anyone ever email these guys after poor calls? I don't know what fans can do about the bad officiating other than let them know what we think. Anyone else have any ideas what positive things fans can do to improve the NHL?
