Fame comes calling on referee McCreary

Former National Hockey League referee Bill McCreary admits he made "hundreds" of mistakes during his career - but one stands out.
The Dallas Stars were in Los Angeles to play the Kings at the Great Western Forum. McCreary let a goal stand on a delayed penalty that should not have counted, and coach Larry Robinson let him know.
"I look over at the LA bench and Larry's standing on the bench giving me the choke sign," McCreary said. "So now I throw him out of the game and everything just snowballed from there."
