Jeff the Ref: Why Blues' Zarn Sullivan Should Have Been Red Carded

Yes.

DSPN - Devlin Sports Podcast Network
Jeff the Ref: Why Blues' Zarn Sullivan Should Have Been Red Carded

What was the degree of danger?

DSPN - Devlin Sports Podcast Network
Jeff the Ref: Why Blues' Zarn Sullivan Should Have Been Red Carded

Well, I think that there's

the high degree of danger, and it says mitigation will not apply for any intentional or highly reckless acts.

DSPN - Devlin Sports Podcast Network
Jeff the Ref: Why Blues' Zarn Sullivan Should Have Been Red Carded

Well, I think it's highly reckless, but if there is mitigation, it goes to yellow card.

DSPN - Devlin Sports Podcast Network

And that's where you'll hear the ref say the mitigation was that he was falling into it.

And so by using that magic word mitigation,

DSPN - Devlin Sports Podcast Network
Jeff the Ref: Why Blues' Zarn Sullivan Should Have Been Red Carded

I think that that's where it all lets it go.

DSPN - Devlin Sports Podcast Network
Jeff the Ref: Why Blues' Zarn Sullivan Should Have Been Red Carded

And so when the TMO looks at it, he's got in the back of the head, there's mitigation.

DSPN - Devlin Sports Podcast Network
Jeff the Ref: Why Blues' Zarn Sullivan Should Have Been Red Carded

If that word had never been said, I think we would have seen that the TMO would have elevated it to arrest.

DSPN - Devlin Sports Podcast Network
Jeff the Ref: Why Blues' Zarn Sullivan Should Have Been Red Carded

Yeah, I think so.

DSPN - Devlin Sports Podcast Network
Jeff the Ref: Why Blues' Zarn Sullivan Should Have Been Red Carded

I'm just looking to see how often Jordan's actually had a game, and he hasn't had many.

And so maybe that on-field experience is not quite there yet.

DSPN - Devlin Sports Podcast Network
Jeff the Ref: Why Blues' Zarn Sullivan Should Have Been Red Carded

I think that that should definitely be something that they should be stamping out of the game.

DSPN - Devlin Sports Podcast Network
Jeff the Ref: Why Blues' Zarn Sullivan Should Have Been Red Carded

He stands, like you say, he's got his feet planted there.

DSPN - Devlin Sports Podcast Network
Jeff the Ref: Why Blues' Zarn Sullivan Should Have Been Red Carded

His shoulder sort of seems to go into it.

DSPN - Devlin Sports Podcast Network
Jeff the Ref: Why Blues' Zarn Sullivan Should Have Been Red Carded

I don't think that there's enough mitigation, personally.

DSPN - Devlin Sports Podcast Network
Jeff the Ref: Why Blues' Zarn Sullivan Should Have Been Red Carded

Again, this is the same thing that I've talked about in the past.

DSPN - Devlin Sports Podcast Network
Jeff the Ref: Why Blues' Zarn Sullivan Should Have Been Red Carded

Once you start applying the rulebook, he applied the rulebook correctly,

The problem is, it's that caveat of the mitigation that lets him go to the next step that says, now it's just a yellow.
