commentary...

i would never say that San Jose,in the series against Detroit,in last season's playoffs,did not deserve to win series... they did,and for the most part,they outplayed,and outhustled the Red Wings... in a show of candor,they beat the Red Wings,in that series... my only major complaint was the refereeing throughout the series was the worst of any of the playoff series... the referees showed up the coaches,and the Red Wings throughout that series,and that is why i am so down on referees,because the lousy ones in the league have such massive egos that they believe that everyone wants to see them referee the game,and somehow become part of the game,and they want the spotlight,and they want to decide who wins... examples:Stephan Auger,Paul Devorski,and Mike Leggo... they have the most penalties called,and each of them seem to have a thin skin,and arrogance to spare... they think they are very critical to the game,and they seem to have grudges against certain teams,but they think that they are bigger than the game,which i really can not stand that,so their arrogance and them being lousy compounds their so-called kingmaking bull...
