They didn't show his reaction on the FSN feed, so I'm inclined to believe he didn't vent his anger too much. I don't remember a ref being fired, but I believe you. I wish the NHL would return to a place where they'd be willing to do that. It's always frustrating when a goal gets waived off like that, but tonight was particularly bad, I thought.

I think this is three goals disallowed now through only 9 games. This game could very well be 2-0 Detroit right now going into the 1st intermission. I remember two years ago, a referee got fired for allowing a goal that was obviously kicked in, ever after video review. If a ref can get fired for allowing a blatant non-goal, the league must be able to do something about a ref disallowing an obviously legitimate goal. Even the Phoenix radio announcers were saying how bad the penalty was and that Zetterberg was robbed of a goal. (They obviously weren't too sad though.)
