Tell us how you really feel, Grant.
Former Edmonton Oilers goaltender Grant Fuhr took aim at the officiating during Game 1 of the Oilers' second-round series against the Anaheim Ducks on Wednesday night.
That's a horseshit call for goalie interference

Oilers forward Anton Slepyshev was assessed a goalie interference minor after barreling into John Gibson on a scoring chance in the second period.
Slepyshev tries driving to the net from the right side, but gets a little too much of the goalie this time. #MISSION17 pic.twitter.com/ufW3Lp97Ih

Fuhr is obviously biased, and he's surely used to seeing former teammate Glenn Anderson crashing the net like that back in their heyday, but goaltenders are a little more protected by the rulebook these days.
