Even though the Flyers had more power plays and less penalty minutes called against them, Peter Laviolette was still upset at the calls that were made against the Flyers.
Peter Laviolette Upset At The Calls During The Game
“Going back and looking at that game, there are just too many penalties that never happened,” said the head coach. “On that play in particular, Simon Gagne didn’t high stick anybody. So, it turns around and goes the other way.
“Scott Hartnell did not, in my opinion, interfere with the goaltender (at 7:44 of the first period). I don’t know if it’s a reputation from the past, but you know we want to play tough, physical…we don’t need to go to the box. But, we’re still going there, and our players aren’t taking penalties.”
Honestly coach, you get nine power plays in the game, including a short five-on-three, and you only convert on one. You should probably worry about your special teams before calling out the referees in this game.
