 * Numbers in orange represent ref’s ranking among active officials
 
* Penalty Differential represents the absolute value of the variance of penalty calls by team per game. If Team A takes two more penalties (or two fewer) than Team B, this is a 2  Lower numbers indicate less variance between total penalties in a game – that is, a closer number of calls for both teams.
