Kerry Fraser is not doing his job well and has not been doing it well for over a decade it is about time that the NHL (National Hockey League), NHLPA (National Hockey League Players Association), and NHLOA (National Hockey League Officials Association) realized this and makes sure he never referee another game again.
Any official in any sport is of course going to make a controversial call with which some do not agree. Fans of any sports are prone to yelling obscenities at a referee after a call they do not like but Kerry Fraser is the only official in the NHL who fans will jeer and curse out when his name is announced as an officiator BEFORE the game. As soon as Kerry Frasers name shows up on the books to officiate any game fans start to worry.
Fraser's non-call in Game 6 of the 1993 Western final between the Toronto Maple Leafs and Los Angeles Kings occurred when Wayne Gretzky whacked Doug Gilmour in the nose and it stung that much more when the Great One scored the winning goal in overtime. The Kings went on to win the series. Some 10 years later, Fraser chose the night of his 1,500th career game to come clean. It was a missed call and it was unfortunate," Fraser, 51, admitted.
Fraser, who has officiated the most games in NHL history, has missed some other big calls that have cost teams as well as himself. Fraser was dropped from the playoff rotation last spring after missing a call in an earlier round. He also blew a call on a disputed goal in the 1998 Eastern Conference final between the Buffalo Sabres and Washington Capitals that resulted in the league apologizing to the Sabres. Fraser was switched out of the referee position for Game 6 of this years Stanley Cup Finals in Calgary Fraser was switched out of the referee position for Game 6 of this years Stanley Cup Finals in Calgary, although the League will not admit it, because they were worried he would make another bad call in his already 20 plus year long string of bad calls.
Around the league he is one of the most maligned referees and this hockey fan would be only too happy to see his time in the NHL come to an immediate end.
What does it say about a league that continues to allow this man to referee? How many chances does he get? He has cost too many teams too much and yet he is still allowed to referee. Is the NHL so desperate for referees that they cannot find someone to take his place?
We, the undersigned, plead with the National Hockey League, the National Hockey League Players Association, and the National Hockey League Officials Association to ensure that Kerry Fraser is removed from the active roster of referees and never allowed to referee another NHL game ever.
