Kelly Sutherland is either an incompetent hack, or he ignores blatant calls for "game management". Either way, he should not ref a single game in these playoffs after that disaster.

This is just the Kelly Sutherland experience bruh. Beer league level official. He is just abysmal. EVERY game you watch that he officiates, you are guaranteed to see some WHACK ASS calls.

No wonder why Canadian teams haven’t won the cup since the 1992-1993 season. The reffing for two Canadian teams playing each other in the playoffs is just straight up horrible!

Why didn't the refs review the high stick like they did in the Colorado-Winnipeg series and give McDavid 4 min? unreal

Surprised they didn't give his face 2 minutes for interfering with McDavid's stick...

Outshit was hilarious. Glad you kept that in there.

The Oilers knew it was Sutherland reffing. 2 slew foots, a cheap crotch shot and the high stick that should’ve sent mcdavid off for 4 mins. The Canucks had missed calls too but no where near that dirty. I expect game 3 to be a battle

Kelly Sutherland is THE WORST! Reminds me of the refs from WWF back in the day. 🤣 The refs and linesman should also be subjected to questions, interviews and press conferences. Hold em' accountable!

Missing calls makes the game dangerous. If you aren’t going to call McDavid for drawing blood, why even ref at all? It makes players think they can get away with anything or retaliate

been going on all playoffs. If your team is down in the series the refs will let you get away with murder. The NHL wants these series to go as long as possible.

Brutal officiating both ways, missed a too many men right before the canucks 3rd goal, but then on the other hand that mcdavid missed call was horrendous. Simply terrible officiating

I was kind of indifferent on this series, though leaning towards rooting for Vancouver. I definitely am now, I can't respect a team that pulls nut shots. I wish nothing but Edmonton's impending doom for at least 10 years.

yikes the ref was baaaad

The nhl reffing has been brutal for both teams this series. They don’t call anything. So many times I see canucks boarded and the oilers kept getting held by the canucks. As a oilers fan I feel that the refs overall have been pretty bad overall once again for both teams

The refs are "outshit"😂

Being a long time goalie(30 years of playing), yes RVH is terribly overused by goalies. In fact, it has degraded the quality of NHL goaltending. I have a basic, old school approach. Don't go down unless the shot is waist level or lower! It is a lot easier being upright and going down in the butterfly than reverse. What puzzles me, the goalies teammates are going down to block a shot and the goalie still goes down into the butterfly! Frankly, I'm tired of Game analysts saying it was a great shot upper shelf. I say to myself, " no it was not a great top shelf shot if the goalie wasn't already going down into the butterfly!" Regarding officiating, it's embarrassing what it has come too to this point! If it continues like this, a player will get severely hurt, and it will force the NHL's hand to do something about it. How officiating is called in the game does effect the risk of the players health.

As a Leaf fan I think I've seen something similar. 93', Leafs vs Kings, Gretzky high-sticking Gilmour, blood on his chin. I seriously have no idea how this keeps happening. They just never learn.

This is why enforcers are needed in the game. When the refs refuse to make calls the players take it into their own hands.

You forgot to mention the high stick to Hyman's teeth that had him bleeding from his mouth.

"I think i'll use my credit card" Derek Brown to Hoglander

As an older, former goalie, I have been saying for about two years…Goalies are over using RVH. And in general spending too much time on their knees. This gives away the top of the net (and yes, goalies are bigger than they used to be) but shooters have learned to just go high. AND once you are on your knees you are committed and once you are committed, if the shooter hasn’t shot, youre done.

That was Derek Ryan* #10, Conor Brown* #28 is an entirely different human.

My brother is a Canuck fan and was so mad when he saw the over time winner.

The no call that bugs me the most is the slew foot from Kane. I’ve always hated that play-very dirty, can easily injure, and is called Way too infrequently at all levels. I’m sure there were missed calls both ways and I don’t think the refs gave Edmonton that game, but I still think that is a cowardly play. (By the way, I do think it’s interesting for an officiating crew to miss a high stock occurring between the two team captains right near the puck. Who could be expected to see that?)

The reffing in all the playoff serious has been atrocious, NHL better step up their game on it, ruining a lot of games.

Of course I believe there was no call there. It was McDavid

What pissed me most about the McDavid no-call on the high-stick that drew blood was NOT that it was missed. Anyone can miss things, it's that I believe the refs didn't want to send off such an entertaining player for 4 minutes for just a "light" high-sticking.

So I was a goalie for 8 years and I can tell you for sure that I WOULD NOT survive in modern hockey. Playing positional used to be acceptable but now players have just gotten better and better and can fit a puck in a pocket the size of the puck itself. I have no idea how modern NHL goalies can keep up with the players of today.

„As they were outShit“ 😂

I actually like the use of RVH in these situations where Zadorov scored. if they don't use it, there is always space to bank it in 5-hole, and going short-side below the arm is possible too. with RVH the only way to score is by putting it top corner, which requires a little more precision and means goalies only have one hole to worry about instead of two.

Be funny as if any other player did that to McDavid they would call it for 4 minutes immediately

Why does no one mention the take down on Mcdavid after his goal. Dangerous play and is a possible career ender.

I like how myers pirouettes out of the mcdavid play so he can avoid being in that highlight for the rest of his life

that cheapshot on höglander was actually sad no man does that to another man.

There needs to be an investigation by an independent arbiter NOT the NHL.

-these stupid refs dont know a thing-

0:32 mmh yes, my favourite hockey player: Derek Brown

Derek Ryan.

It’s like no one has seen a missed call before. Anyone watching oilers games would see multiple missed infractions against McD nearly every game. That high stick was not malicious or intentional. Derek Ryan pulled a dirty one and should be addressed by the league. BTW, Z’s goal was scored with too many men on the ice. Maybe too inconvenient to mention for some people pushing a narrative I guess.

Ummm, and just when was officiating ever great? The worst thing that ever happened, was when they added more, and now have damn near a whole line of officials getting in the way. And they claimed that they'd never miss any calls now. How'd that turn out? They miss more than ever, they are always in the way, of the puck and the players, and, they can't even pick up a broken stick, which is then always altering a play. All it was about, was creating more employment for themselves.

If the refs did there jobs then players wouldn’t be so aggressive….its simple

I’m glad you left in “outshit” 😂😂

Cheap shots create more cheap shots . Kids learn to be cheap shots from this. Ban it.

Brutal refs

Even as an oilers fan im mad about that highsticking missed call

That missed high stick was egregious. I get "Let 'em play!" but oooooof....

That was just embarrassing for the league. The NHL needs to clean up this mess.

The officiating has been HORRIBLE. It's funny because last year, when the Oilers played Vegas, I came away hating the Golden Knights. This year, I have a lot of respect for the Canucks themselves, I just hate the refs. I do really want to know what on earth happened to lead up to that spear from Derek Ryan. He's usually very calm and is one of the last Oilers I'd ever expect to see that from.

This has been happening all season long. It's just highlighted in the playoffs. The Wings got screwed quite a few times this year.

We're NOT talking Janmark being boarded or Hyman taking a high stick to the face before McDavid? I mean, if we're going to complain, let's do all of it. McDavid SHOULD have been given a 4 minute major, but there were plenty of other calls that were missed before that happened.

idk if you've tuned into the pwhl playoffs at all, but last night's Boston vs Montreal game went to 3OT and also had some reallyyyy debatable reffing. would love to see your coverage on some of these games, they're getting into some serious hockey

Game 2 was like a lawless old West shootout

For those wondering, Derek Brown is the love child of Derek Ryan and Connor Brown (0:35)

Fun fact! The canucks have never won a game that kelly sutherland has reffed! With that being said there was 3 majors the oilers commited this game that never got called and possibly two of them could have been game misconducts. Along with about 12 other missed holding, crosschecking and hooking penatlies. And im from edmonton lol. All this says to me. The league wants this to go to 7 games. $$$$

If the refs called every infraction on both sides theydstill be playing game2

Officiating in this league is always either good, or REALLY bad.

Too many Missed calls both ways

Edmonton was given this game. NHL is not a real league.

It’s an easy fix. If it’s a penalty in October, it’s a penalty in April/May/June. If the refs don’t want to call the penalties, don’t give them a job

It goes the same way for game one, when the oilers were in the nucks zone the puck went flying and zadorov grab the puck out of the air and threw it away infront of the ref causing them two score the two goals so its even now

With the NHL and other major sports in a soixante neuf with sanctioned gambling you can expect things to only get more worser.

That Zadorov goal I saw the hit maker when he shot that

Absolutely brutal! The one that really sets me off is the after the fact interference call on Hoglander to even up the call after Ryan spears his nuts! Watch the ref: Hoglander checks Ryan, nothing…Ryan spears him, the ref slowly, hesitantly raises his arm. They huddle up and miraculously pull an interference call out of their corrupt behinds. WWE scripted games at this point. Sad.

The second half of the game was wave after wave of Oilers lines keeping the puck in the Vancouver zone.

Its fixed. Bet365, Bet99 and in on it. Plus McDavid protected just like Gretzky was.

I feel like buying Tylenol.

If you look closely at the Florida boston series Florida has been getting the softest power plays ever while boston needs to get shot to get a call.

One thing that’s become clear is that most Canucks fans have no idea how the rules work.

There were hits from behind, and high sticks on both teams. So much interference on every zone entry. Was annoying to watch then they called random shit calls like nuge "hold" and a weak interference on McDavid

Those are dirty plays. McDavid is reckless and that's no excuse.

Heck honestly as an unbiased oilers fan that is bs however they did miss some things on the oilers as well so they’re just straight up bad

Wow. While watching the game, I don't remember it looking this bad. But that was brutal. They need to do a lot better for sure. I've heard that during the playoffs, the refs let a lot more slide, but Jesus, there's got to be some officiating during these games. C'mon. Having said all of that, GO OILERS GO!!!

No call because the NHL brass think they need McDavid to win

People saying that the Canucks got the better end of the shit officiating when zadorovs goal had too many men on and was never called =/ GO OILERS! FUC THE CANUCKS!!!

Yeah, check out how badly the Bruins are getting screwed in their series.

Sutherland getting another game in the playoffs will be embarrassing for the league.

"hilarious shot of derek brown" its derek ryan, just a heads up lol

The whistles are put away this series more than in others. Be careful what you wish for because if they did call more then the Nucks wouldnt have a chance. There were missed calls both ways. If the league isnt going to call things then why wouldnt the Oilers dirty it up?

McJesus is not capable of sin.

Derek Brown is my favourite player on the Oilers

Who tf is Derek Brown, Eck? That's Derek Ryan.

I prefer "out-shit" lol

kane's slewfoot on quinn was fucking dirty, how tf was this not called??

Penalties missed both ways, but not seeing as many cheep shots let alone ones that could cause injuries,.. and that’s the problem.

The refs in playoffs r ridiculous!? They'll not call blatantly obvious penalties that they clearly saw but then they'll go and call the weakest most ticky tack things!!? It's ridiculous!?

Let's have another Stars hating video, only this time you can focus on how they "almost" gave up a goal in the 3rd period and how embarrassing it was to win 4-1 by scoring 2 empty netters. KEEP SPREADING THE STARS HATRED Eck, we love it!

LOL! WTF was Myers doing on that McDavid goal? Dude did a f**king pirouette!! He really isn't a very good d-man.

McDavid and McBlood don't mix. I guess.

The calls were not going either way. Zadorovs goal should not have counted bc of too many men.

Oh? NHL refs missing calls? Wow. How shocking.... 😴

Still don’t think either team is playing that great, it’ll be interesting to see which team steps it up first

The Canucks got 2 shots on net in the 3rd period. No amount of “missed calls” will change that. You Canuck fans need to understand that, A, the refs miss calls. It goes both ways. B, it’s playoff hockey, they let more stuff go to keep the game faster and more intense. Remember when your coach got Bettman to give both teams a warning about embellishment?? (That’s a classic Tochet move btw). Well that means less calls are going to be made. It’s ok, I understand you Canuck fans are inexperienced with the way the game is played in the Playoffs. lol

It’s tough to score when you let the other team spend the entire third period in your zone, Oilers were relentless in the third Nucks could not clear the zone

Just gonna say it The refing was bad for both sides, betman be trying to mess with both Canadian teams

The NHL: "Every official calls the game a little differently" NHL Sponsors: Bet365, BET 99, MGM etc. Now place your bets boys

Oilers fan. Garbage refs so far in the series. This is bush league officiating.

Did Kelly Sutherland not learn anything from Chris Lee?

I always try to out shit myself

Hey, while you at it. Florida Boston. Boston trying to score. Boston player is pushed into floridas tender, without a way to avoid it due to florida player control him and making sure he cant avoid collision with goalie, boston player gets goaltending interference. I mean wtf!!! Wtf is that call? So you can just always control opponents so they collide with your own goalie and they get a 2 min call. And you can also push opponents into their own goalie so he is knocked down and wont get called and you can score, just making sure is just enough power when you do it so its never a clear crosscheck. Fantastic way to take advantage of stupid refs

Not saying the Lindgren penalty wasn’t a penalty but in a game like that you don’t call ANYTHING all game til the last 3 minutes? That’s dog shit. These refs should have to answer to the media and the NHLPA should have representatives there to speak to them after too because they’ve been horrible on both sides for EVERY series. I watch at least one game a night and they’re awful. The Hughes high stick…. Atrocious miss
