I know that in the NHL, the goal would be disallowed however, at this age group, do you think the referee was being a little too technical? At this age group, could he had looked the other way considering the skill level of the players?
Personally, I thought that this was an example of a new cop just out of the academy who writes 100 traffic tickets on his first week on the job just to show "who's in charge out there".
Any responses to this would be appreciated

Who is being too technical here Sal, you or the official. Had he not called a penalty that you thought should have been called, you probably would have been all over the kid also. If you don't want officails that do there job , don't hire them.
Your probably right he was like the new cop out of the academy however, did you really think they were gaoing to send you one of the NHL officials not working now. NOT
Suck it up OOOORRR go get certified and then you can handle it your way.
Little Johnnie, or your son, probably forgot all about at McDonalds afterwards anyway. How come you can't?
