Link to original video: • When NHL Referees Have...
If I'm not mistaken it's quite common for referees to have a lot of playing history and background. People tend to see them as players who weren't good enough to play professionally, so they're very in tune with what's happening throughout the game, not just the rules.
I’m fairly certain that’s correct, with the exception of a handful of refs or linesmen who would’ve made pros if not for a bad injury or some sort of health issue. I had a buddy who was being scouted for the OHL until he shattered his elbow. Nowadays he’s more or less a full time referee at the Canada Games Centre in NS
They’re all excellent skaters and the vast majority played at some level, but it’s fairly rare for them to have made it to the NHL as a player. I found a list of about 10, but there are probably a few others.
My daughter plays pro hockey in Europe. Just last night she was at a club with a bunch of teammates, and they ran into one of the refs who officiates in the league. The ref joked with them about how much shit he gets from them and the coach, and then he bought them all a couple of rounds. As with all things hockey, words get thrown, sometimes fists, but it stays on the ice and there is mutual respect.
I appreciate the reaction guys!
Hey, appreciate your compilations bud!
The pushing of the player into the penalty box… that’s called “policing the game” the ORIGINAL fuck around and find out, love it! Always have, always will! LOVE from Idaho yall 🫶🏽🙏🏾
Nah McGeough didn’t get in trouble for throwing Darcy Tucker into the box… honestly there’s plenty of people that would have lined up to throw Darcy Tucker into the box.
Wes McCauley and Paul Stewart are two examples of many refs who were drafted and/or played in the professional ranks and even the NHL.
At 3:40, "is he faking it?" The penalty was for "embellishment," which means the other team did something relatively mild but the penalized player acted like it was severe. Referees don't like it when it's obvious a player is trying to deceive them.
This video omitted the most famous recent incident. When the referee turned on his mic to announce the penalty, he first said "you can't do that." The way he said it made it funnier.
Yup, the opposite mindset that footie has with diving.
Yeah I was about to say, that one is my favorite "you can't do that" lol.
The kind of diving that happens all the time in footie gets you a 2 minute penalty in hockey. I used to referee, and we used to call it unsportsmanlike conduct, but then they started calling it what it was: embellishment.
I grew up in a small town, population 500 or so, in Canada. Every kid with the exception of 2 or 3 (for whatever reason) skated. Most of us played organized hockey. The local arena/skating rink was the nerve center of the town from the moment the ice was ready in the fall till it started getting nice outside in the spring and the ice melted. At age 14 or so, I began to referee.
Truly a great moment in sports history😂
I played hockey with Fredrick L’Ecuyer who became an NHL ref in 2010. He would swing by to play on our beer league team in NC when he had some time. Dude was a great skater with a wicked shot. I doubt there’s one out there that didn’t play some form before becoming a ref.
Nice to see some blokes over the pond enjoying the game.
You and Aiden should really watch the movie "Slap Shot." Its an older movie, but it really puts semi-pro hockey into perspective.
I was just coming to post the same thing. If they haven't seen it, they need to. Like, NEED TO!
A favorite among hockey players. Fun movie.
That one with the ref throwing tucker into the box was back in the 00s that guy he threw darcy tucker was a scrappy little dude that could also play extremely well.
The ref didnt get in trouble. Its a physical sport and the refs move people all the time.
When asked what my favorite sport is, I always answer hockey! In every other sport, if you punch another player in the face, you get ejected, and, possibly suspended. In Hockey? Well, even if you consider it an "suspension", it is only for 5 minutes! Aside from that the speed and creativity of the game is breathtaking.
This is how you can understand the complexity of skating at a high level for hockey. Hockey has been around since the 1800's, skating has been around since who knows. To this day coaches, instructors, etc are still finding/creating new and more efficient ways to improve an individuals skating. Like their agility, speed, balance, creativity. Tell me if that happens with running. Sure there are techniques and such, but its mostly all been figured out. You just need someone that is physically gifted and you can teach them the same techniques that you were taught and they could be competing at a high level. Skating is still to this day changing and improving. These younger kids speed is so next level compared to the last generation and you can quite literally see it in their form when they essentially "Full Sprint". Their entire form and technique in a full sprint is different. There is a cool video that does a breakdown analysis on it, it's a good watch. That is why when "The most difficult sport" is brought up for discussion, hockey is always in the top 5, and a debate for 1 or 2.
The league you guys have in the U.K reminds me of old-time smash mouthed hockey. It's awesome people in North America need to watch it.
It would be awesome if someone in england had a NHL franchise. The big problem is traveling to north america and playing in canada and the states. But maybe one day that is something that can be considered. Many players in the NHL come from europe and yall have great access to a lot of great players over there.
I think this proves that Hockey is a gentleman's sport.
Mike Rupp has a great Ref story from when he was playing. It's worth a watch.
The Vancouver canucks led Nashville 3 to 1 after an epic failure in the thrid 🍁
I played hockey throughout my youth. There is a very real thing in games with refs and players chirping each other back and forth. A couple of the funniest sh!t talkers Ive ever met were hockey refs in Canada and Minnesota.
hockey is the best sport to see live, especially if you are down near the glass and can hear them all talking
The NHL Playoffs just started, you should react to some highlights. Last night on its own was one of the best saves in playoff history.
There's some amazing rivalry series going on, cheers
We second this idea!
5:58 that moment when your mom comes into your room after she put you there to keep your mouth shut....
There is no sport that have more intense playoffs than the NHL. A game 7 in the play-offs, no matter who plays, is bound to be must see tv.
That's one reason I love hockey. You can hear a lot of that going on. Loved that video. Back in the 60's our city had an International Hockey League team. The refs , and linesmen, had to be some strong tough guys. Those were wild games.
I wish there was a rated R feed i could pay for where the mics were on the entire game.
watch the refs in a game. you gotta be a crazy kind of old man to want to be trapped in that rink with just a tiny ledge to sit on
Gotta be the best sport ever 💯
I'd love to see your reaction to "Brawl in Hockeytown" (Fightnight at the Joe). It's one of my greatest memories of Hockey and shows how the players regulate bad apples within the game. There are longer recaps where they show the importance of that game to a rivalry for the ages.
If you're new to Hockey will also show different the game is today Vs. 20+ yrs ago.
love these nhl reactions!
The dude who manhandled that player definitely would not get fired, have no worries. Sometimes when you’ve got 10 giant meat heads trying to kill each other at the same time, you have no choice but to (literally) toss somebody lol
McGeough wasn’t the greatest ref, but Tucker is a player that would’ve earned it
@@joelmacdonald6994 without a doubt hahaha
Yeah the “embellishment” penalty is because unlike soccer/footie, we penalize and don’t promote taking dives to get a call lll
This was so great 🥊
Big Jimmy Carr, the Linesman 😂
I like that you guys said, not everybody can do it( play hockey). One thing is, hockey is super expensive to play. From league fees, equipment, and ice time.
I’ve always thought hockey was the best sport because these guys never seem to lose their love for the game. It’s no nonsense. I’m playing to win and you better not hurt one of my teammates or were going to get you back on the next play. The refs don’t take any crap off of the players either. And you have to have talent to play this game. The movie Slap Shot (1977 with Paul Newman) is funny. You two should watch it.
You should react to Connor Bedards rookie highlights! Dude was electric this year
Heyo from Philly! 🧡🤍🖤
That was great!
You never want to have your head down! You can get your head taken off lol
8:12 and on is just awesome 😂
Honestly I’d rather a ref tell me to F off right back than to act like a teacher. I’m not sure how many penalties I got as a kid for mouthing off to the ref though
Mick Magoo,, the ref who threw the dude into the box, was not disciplined for that incident. I seem to recall he was widely praised, cuz the dude he threw was being a total D hole the whole way to the box. He was the biggest damn ref I've ever seen in any sport. And he was on skates to boot.
McGeough was built like a mack truck. lol
More hockey videos please!!!
More hockey, please.
Could you react to Connor bedard best rookie NHL highlights?
You guys should react to "Meet the 2024 Detroit Lions International Fan of the Year: Ryan Fardon" he's British. 🦁💙
Love the channel boys. Let's Go Rangers!!!
Why else do you think Jimmy Carr has had that much work done on his face?
You ought to watch the Canadian series about hockey called "Shoresy".
Hockey is a man's sport, pure and simple.
Indeed! And football is for mutant monsters.
react to AHL referee wears go pro you’ll love it
React to the Nuggets vs Lakers Game 2, crazy ending from being down by 20 points
Just the last 3 minutes of the game alone is a good reaction
It's best when the refs have a Canadian accent as they tell you to F off.
Let’s go Canes!
Flordia panthers
This is why I always have said NHL refs are the best you'll find, along with rugby and some of the NFL refs.
The Texas Rangers are basically a Dallas Team!
The Texas Rangers just won the world series, i wouldn't say its been awhile since Dallas has won anything
That's what the Premier League needs, some refs who'll tell the players to stfu with all the whining they do
Hockey is the BEST!!!
Bruins!
Aiden please I hope you didn't jinx my Stars.
Refs in any pro sport are under the most pressure of any major part of the game. A player who is objectively great will never lack for opportunity, but refs are always being intimidated with the will of team owners, players, and fans to distort how they call. They have no leverage if they're targeted. It's the main way that pro sports are still corrupted by the gambling industry.
Brutes. Love hockey, its the best. The players and refs and everyone involved are just cut from a different cloth.
And if you want to see the weakest officials in all of sports just look at Major League baseball........ It didn't used to be that way either. Back in the day there were epic screaming matches between umpires and managers with no ejections. You used to not get ejected unless you made contact with the umpire or just wouldn't stop screaming. Now they literally eject you for nothing. Their feelings are so fragile and for some reason they think everyone buys tickets to go see them. Hockey is one of the few real men's sports left.
NHL refs don’t put up with nothing 😂😂
Nah...Canucks are going to beat Nashville 😊
Dallas Stars!!!!!!!!!! What an answer!!!! Let's Go!!!!!
Boston Bruins will win it.
Sure we have the NHL AND NBA AND NFL, but you guys the European Football, we get your washed up players who come over to the MLS. So sad
You need to come to America for playoff game. Live playoff hockey is the best.
NHL referees take a lot of shit, so when they had enough the give it
I respect the hell outta NHL Refs. They review plays well, they might not call everything but they don’t take no shit. It’s also gotta be one of the more tiring referee positions given you have to skate stay out of the way of the puck and players, and have to keep these big MFs apart when they want to scrap like a boxing ref.
