Where the officiating has been so biased to one team
And this is watching every series since 2006-7 season |

I'm only counting it because it's a separate series.
I guess Anaheim-Alberta would be the official name of the playoff "series" with the absolute most pathetic incompetence by NHL officials. |

I don't recall the Canadian teams that made the finals during Bettman's tenure being screwed out of a cup win though.
Calgary in 2004 can probably be argued, and pretty much all Flames fans WILL argue about it, but the entire "it was in" argument is based on a really, really bad camera angle.
Ottawa in 2007 and Edmonton in 2006 definitely lost fair and square, although Edmonton was absolutely murdered by a hilarious fluke mistake by 𝑇𝑦 𝐶𝑜𝑛𝑘𝑙𝑖𝑛 that might even exceed the 𝑆𝑡𝑒𝑣𝑒 𝑆𝑚𝑖𝑡𝘩 own goal from '86 in terms of embarrassment. |

| ####### never recovered from that. The fact Roloson got injured in G1 didn't help. |

you didn't mention vancouver tbh lmao
to be fair, that team got devastated in the cup finals so you can't blame the refs at all. |

You know what I still don't understand?
Why wasn't Jussi Markkanen the backup for G1? He ended up starting the rest of that series anyway. |

| Because neither Marks nor Conks managed to cement the starting role in the season(the whole reason for trading for Roloson) they alternated games as backup. If the oilers swept the ducks(as they should've,) Marks would've backed Roloson up in G1 |

Just noticed that Markkanen's son has an eliteprospects profile
I used to be like an older childhood friend to him around the time of the last playoff run. Haven't seen him for like 10 years because player transactions happen. |
