This evening, Winnipeg Jets head coach Scott Arniel spoke to the media and addressed the several controversial calls that went against the Jets by the referees.

The Dallas Stars took home a victory tonight against the Winnipeg Jets, catapulted by several controversial calls by the referees.
From a missed unsportsmanlike conduct penalty on Mason Marchment to the polarizing review on a goal scored by the Dallas Stars that appeared to be kicked in the game was marred by controversy, and fans poured in from all over to share their frustration with the officiating.
After the game, Winnipeg Jets head coach Scott Arniel spoke to the media and echoed the sentiments of the frustrated Jets fans who believe the referees were off their game tonight.

Scott Arniel Breaks His Silence On Missed Calls By Referees

During his post-game press conference, Arniel was asked to comment on the officiating, and he did not hold back.
Arniel specifically called out the referees for missing the call on the goal scored by Alex Petrovic of the Stars.
These comments from Arniel are likely to earn him a hefty fine, as team personnel are not allowed to criticize officials to the media as Arniel did this evening.
With the game now over, it will be interesting to see if the NHL makes a statement clarifying the call made on the ice and the official wording of the rule in question that led Petrovic's goal to stand.
All eyes will also be on the league to determine if Marchment's conduct is deserving of a fine or suspension.
One thing is clear: the referees had an off night in this game and will need to be better going forward to keep the balance in this series the way it should be, allowing the players on the ice to determine the outcome.
