Refs
Refs can definitely ruin the game either way. The officials took some heat all year long with penalty calls. Call it too tight and it kills momentum, too loose and all hell breaks loose. When I played back in the 70-80s and won all Ontario championships the Horton hit was nothing spectacular. In fact if you didn't " finish your check" you would have hemmorhoids from sitting on the bench. Kinda ironic but my 12 yr old plays peewee rep and the AAA coaches are saying that the kids have to be tougher and hit harder. LOL
