I highly doubt hockey is viewed as a "marginal sport", and if these people are non-fans or outsoders then does their opinion on the sport really matter? I think not. They obviously have no knowledge of what they are watching so they are forming a bad opinion because they can't understand what they are watching.
I agree the refs need to be held responsible, but does the NHL have the balls to see to this? I doubt it.
