Former National Hockey League player and very popular host Ryan Whitney just sent a message to Montreal Canadiens fans.

He really just helped Gary Bettman, after the referees looked a bit ridiculous last night, and he directed his message straight to Montreal.
"The city of Montreal is still crying about losing to the Oilers!

In the history of the NHL no one has gotten more calls than the Habs and these fans can't get over the Oilers getting a couple calls in their favor last night.

Work on your PK!"

- Ryan Whitney
Whitney literally added fuel to the fire with these comments.

A message that sparked reactions among Montreal Canadiens fans

It's a good time to remember that it wasn't just Canadiens fans who complained about the refereeing in last night's game.
Many analysts (even those covering other NHL teams) had the exact same reaction as all of us.
The referees really lost control last night! They even in a way admitted it themselves as revealed Brendan Gallagher.
"Brendan Gallagher said the officials admitted they made a mistake on the call on Slafkovsky and he felt the call on Anderson was because the official felt Anderson showed him up.

"He didn't," Gallagher said."

At this point, let's just hope the league can fix things and that it doesn't happen too often!
"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

I can't believe Gary Bettman was proud to see that last night.
