Last night the LA Kings hosted the Edmonton Oilers in game 3 of their best of 7 series, and after 3 games, the Kings now hold a 2-1 series lead over the Oilers, but the win did not come without controversy.

Today everyone has been talking about the favouritism of the Referee's in favour of the LA Kings during the game.

Not only did the game winning goal come on a controversial play that should have been called dead by the referee's, but we got to witness this embarrassing dive that the referee's fell for as well:

This play was initally called a 5 minute major, but thankfully the referee's actually reviewed the play and downgraded it to a minor for Nurse.
