Two recent incidents have called various aspects of N.H.L. officiating into question.

The Alex Burrows-Stephane Auger flap, in which the Canucks player accused referee Auger of a personal vendetta against him, has captured the the hockey media’s interest. It’s sensational, involving a colorful hard-working player who is suddenly scoring loads of goals playing with two talented linemates — the Sedin brothers. Burrows chose to go public with his gripe. Headlines guaranteed. The N.H.L. fined Burrows $2,500, said there was no evidence to discipline Auger and declared the case closed.
