They Couldn't Possibly Be Worse Than The Refs You Already Have
-
Remember when it was big news that the NBA hired a couple of female referees? How that was so unusual and controversial? It's commonplace in most sports now, which makes it quite retro that the trend has been slow to affect hockey. The NHL is the only major league not to have a woman ever officiate a game (exhibition or regular), and they know it and are trying to get women into it. Wonder why it's taking so long. (And baseball hasn't had a female ump in a regular season game yet, though they have had some in spring training games, so it's just a matter of time, right?) (Washington Post)
