The Controversy Surrounding Wes McCauley Continues to Grow
The referee, Wes McCauley, is known for his theatrical penalty calls. All season long, we have seen him announce penalties in a different way from the other refs. He continues to be the center of attention, and some fans don't like it.
Wes McCauley Calls Questionable Penalty
After a dangerous cross-check, Brent Burns was sent to the penalty box, but McCauley also sent Burns' victim, Mat Barzal, to serve a two-minute penalty for embellishment. Many fans disagreed with the call, and he added salt to the wound when he announced it in an unnecessary dramatic manner.
Fans are getting tired of McCauley. After the controversy with the Maple Leafs, it's a normal reaction.
