Say what REF????

 This is history I copied from a commenter on a hockey blog

August 19, 2020. (Recent enough?).On that date, Chris Lee officiated Game 5 of the Montreal-Philadelphia play-off series. Philly was up 3-1 heading in. Many will recall that game. With only 5 minutes left in regulation, Flyers Matt Niskanen viscously cross-checked Brendan Gallagher directly to his face. Gallagher suffered broken teeth and a broken jaw on the "play", on which the refs saw no infraction and made no penalty call. Gallagher left the game and was out for the season. Coach Julien did not bring the refs over for show-and-tell, and Chris Lee did not inquire on "where did Gallagher go?". While the Habs won the game 5-3 (all 3 Philly goals on power plays), they lost game 6 without Gallagher and that was it for that Stanley Cup run. DOPS assessed Niskanen a one game suspension afterwards despite the refs (including Chris Lee) "not seeing any problem with the play". Chris Lee never got another Habs game after that important play-off game, nearly a year ago.
Until last night.
