Written Option 2:
Love 'em or hate 'em, you have to respect the jobs referees and officials do in sport. Maybe you disagree with that statement, but they hardly warrant all the grief they get. It's easy for the fans at home or in the crowd to make the call, especially in this day and age with countless angles and replays available to us. We've already implemented the use of instant replay in the form of goal reviews and offside challenges. Why not have a third official overseeing the game from the crowd or a higher vantage point? I'm sure it would be argued it would slow the game down, but in the events where there is an egregious call that has been missed by one of the on-ice officials, the "eye in the sky" could signal down to the ice for the game to be stopped and have a play reviewed.
