Thomas Liebold would never do anything wrong so he has never had a penalty called on him that was justified. He also knows that a ref probably will not change their minds after making a call so he does not bother complaining if he ever does get a penalty, instead he focuses his efforts on getting on the refs good side before the game even starts. To do this he goes into the refs locker room and offers to tie their skates before games, he also drops off gift baskets to each ref filled with muffins and chocolates and assorted fruits as well as handwritten notes. This method has proven very beneficial because so far he has never had a season in the SHL with over 33 penalty minutes. This is very impressive because he still plays physically and hits the opponents which just goes to show how great his strategy is for becoming friends with all of the refs in the league.
