I will start by saying the Force are a good team.... A classy organization, however let's not go jumping to them being the new sheriff in town just yet. I am not one to normally blame refs or anything but if you would have been at the Predators vs Force game you may have thought the same thing. I don't blame the Force they are a good ball club however there was a little home cookin when the Predators played them. One specific time was when over minute and something seconds ran off the clock it was addressed and pointed out. the Force agreed the refs even agreed but did nothing about it. Nearly 25 penalties against the Preds (a lot of them were for sure penalties) but a lot of questionable ones. I personally tried to speak with the officiating crew as nicely as possible using excuse me and sir as I addressed them and I was totally ignored. Then was threathened to have an umsportsmanlike flag thrown on me. I didn't swear or raise my voice once, I was just voicing repeated penalties. With that being said to lose in that environment by 5, I think the game in Eau Claire will be a great one. Congrats to beating the Pioneers in preseason and when it mattered. I am looking forward to playing them again. GREAT JOB FORCE!!!!!
