Just got back from the game - MAF definately was the star.
Talked to Paul Bissonnette's dad for a few minutes after the game - nice guy.
My boys insisted on wearing their halloween costumes to the game - so if anyone saw batman and super mario on the jumbotron - those were my kids lol.

From what I can see, its not that the players aren't committing fouls, its that for whatever reason officials just aren't making calls the way they should anymore. The whistle is being swallowed at an insane rate.
