In Elliotte Friedman's 30 thoughts, He said that the Calgary Flames had a meeting with the NHL to discuss the way the Flames are officiated. Friedman in talking to Doug Mclean about a call on the Flames joked about the "Wideman Conspiracy" The meeting was very tense, the Flames are leading the league in penalties taken and penalty minutes per game and are still sitting in the final wild card spot, one point behind Nashville. The Flames in the categories last year were 26th and 19th. In the meeting they went through tons of video including multiple no calls specifically against Dennis Wideman. If there has been a conspiracy against the Flames in the officiating it could have a big affect on the rest of the Flames season. If you watch Calgary Flames games often you probably have noticed how bad and unfair the officiating has been to the Flames constantly this year.

Yeah I read that too. I've noticed the same with Kadri. He seems to get penalized easily now and there's never a penalty called against him. Seems like there's a few guys the refs are after. I bet Vermette is next on their non-call list

The league doesn't care, they have proven this time and time again with their officials.
