Last Thursday, Jared Bednar lashed out at the refs following the Colorado Avalanche’s overtime win over the Buffalo Sabers.
Bednar, who is typically a calm, cool, and collected individual, was frustrated after play was allowed to resume after a collision left Avalanche goaltender goaltender Scott Wedgewood down and hurt in the net, allowing Buffalo’s Zach Benson to score on a wraparound.
“The referee said it wasn’t because we put their guy into Scott [Wedgewood],” Bednar said. “I said I don’t give a shit.”
Bednar explained that if a skater were down in the shooting lane, the officials typically blow the play dead.
