"While I do respect the authority you have on the ice and how hard it is to do your job consistently and that mistakes are bound to happen, this is, sir, with all due respect, by far, the worst call I have ever seen in my life. There is no way in hell I tripped this man, anyone could have seen that. The fact that we are professionnal hockey players does not mean that we cannot sometimes fall on our own, without the use of any external force. This late in the game, have you considered that it is possible that the ice is simply in a suboptimal condition, leading to hazardous terrain for making such fast movements on skate? Please ponder this while I reluctantly accept my fate, which I know cannot be changed by arguing with you now as you must maintain your decision, and try to make better use of your whistle in the future so you don't repeat such unfortunate mistakes."
