Fraser is 100% right. The point is that the Refs can't always be put at fault for these situations. From their vantage point in real-time they can't always get a clear view of what's happening. They should have the ability to review the play and come to a more clear decision. Unfortunately, the NHL doesn't make that tool available to them and that needs to change.
