I've always been impressed with Bill McCreary's officiating, which is why I was so surprised by the job he did in Game 3 against Calgary. I've never seen him call as poor of a game as I found that one to be.

That being said, everyone is entitled to one bad game here and there, and I would welcome him back for each and every game of the WCF series.
