Last night, after the Montreal Canadiens' game against the Edmonton Oilers, things got heated during the post-game press conferences.
Brendan Gallagher had a lot to say regarding the officiating and revealed what the referee told him during their heated exchange... also admitting to making costly mistakes.
Cole Caufield also had a lot to say, calling out the officials in his post-game press conference.
"The refs kind of took over the game there and kudos to them for winning it."

And now, for a very rare occasion, head coach Martin St-Louis also had a lot to say about last night's officiating.
Martin St-Louis makes an unexpected request to the NHL: review the game footage from Edmonton
I love it!
"Habs coach Marty St. Louis on if he ever got an explanation from the referee on Josh Anderson's "unsportsmanlike conduct" penalty:"
"Not really. They don't really come and talk to." - Martin St-Louis
"Not really. They don't really come and talk to." - Martin St-Louis
"We watch video and we try to get better as a group. I hope the league has the same process as coaches do," says Martin St. Louis
Yes, Martin St-Louis said he hopes the NHL will review the officiating footage.
Will this rather unusual request be well received by the league's executives?
In short, I can't wait to see the fallout from all this - it's been a very long time since we've seen so many reactions after a game regarding the refereeing.
Let's not forget that the Montreal Canadiens lost in regulation by a score of 6-5 against the Edmonton Oilers, and Martin St-Louis' squad will be back in action tomorrow night against the Vancouver Canucks.
