Favourite all-time linesman

[shack]

There are some good options here:

John D'Amico
Ray Scapinello

But I'm going with Ron Finn. His dad drove truck for my dad's business.

Kerry Fraser, simply because he had great hair.

Oops!, well if there was a thread on fave refs, he'd be the one.

If there wasn't a personal connection for me with Finn, I would have taken D'Amico. He was probably stronger than most of the players which came in handy for breaking up fights.

Old time refs I remember from the '60s.

Art Skov
Frank Udvari
John Ashley (least strict)
Bill Friday (strictest)

And my fave ref would be Vern Buffey, the referee-in-chief.

Linesman?

He was a linesman, playing a ref on TV. (a reference to when he missed the high-sticking call on Gilmour).

Neil Armstrong, often paired w John D'Amico...

Armstrong was wiry but strong

Calling out Fraser as a great linesman when he was a ref was brilliant. The best backhanded compliment award goes to ...

Unacceptable choice.

He was a lineman, not a linesman. Please stay on topic.
