Referees Gord Dwyer and Jean Hebert are working together for the first time this postseason.

Dwyer was previously paired up with ref Pierre Lambert for Sens/Leafs Game 2, Panthers/Lightning Game 2, Devils/Hurricanes Game 5, and Golden Knights/Wild Game 6.

Hebert skated alongside Peter MacDougall at Devils/Hurricanes Game 2,  Leafs/Senators Game 4, Canadiens/Capitals Game 5, and Jets/Blues Game 6.

The Winnipeg Jets are undefeated in regulation (8-0-1) under either of tonight’s refs over the past two regular seasons — until their Game 6 playoff loss under Jean Hebert. 

This is referee Gord Dwyer’s 6th Game 7 and the 4th for Jean Hebert.

 

Standby Officials: Peter MacDougall (#38), Julien Fournier (#56)

Games: PS (Preseason); RS (Regular Season); PO (Playoffs) 

Stats/Numbers: ’24-25 avg. (’24-25 rank) | ’23-24 avg. (’23-24 rank)

Number in orange/parentheses indicated referee’s rank 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.
