"Give the NHL Officials some credit here. They use their OWN judgement as to where they have to be, and how they get there.'

As a amateur Hockey Official I not only give them credit, but I admire and totally respect what they do. But just as there are basic mechanics in officiating softball, there are the same basics for ice hockey. Their "OWN" judgement has been developed based upon years of experience executing the basic mechanics. Also Mr.Van Hellerman has a lot to say about how they execute those mechanics.

Even at that level, you answer to someone.
