Referees Gord Dwyer and Corey Syvret are working together for the 2nd time this season; Linespersons David Brisebois and Ryan Gibbons are paired up for the 1st time this season.
Penalty-type shares are from 2025-26 regular-season games worked; the data does not identify which referee called each penalty, so every penalty is credited to both referees assigned to the game. Challenge overturn rates are from 2025-26: offside challenges for linespersons (89% league average) and goaltender interference challenges for referees (39% league average).
Games: PS (Preseason); RS (Regular Season); PO (Playoffs)
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.
We’ve also got new rules, new refs, promoted officials, and an updated pronunciation guide for 2026-27.
