Referee Sebastien Valois awarded Nanaimo a goal late in the second period, telling Westside coaches afterwards a linesmen saw the puck cross the line before the whistle blew.
What made the situation hard for the Warriors to swallow was Cory Pritz‘s blast with three seconds to play that everyone on the Westside thought went in, hit the back crossbar and bounce out again. But the referee didn‘t talk to his assistants or the goal judge for that one, irking Warriors coach Mark Howell.
“The referee doesn‘t have the respect of the game to go ask his linesmen? It‘s wrong, it‘s just wrong,” Howell said. “Just go ask, that‘s all you‘ve got to do. . . . Yet on the other one, I guess they made the wrong call on that one, too. So two bad calls tonight.”
Westside forwards Brady Mason (shoulder) and Chris Shudo (ankle) were both sidelined.
