Bloggers are productive, refs are restrictive. More bloggers is definitely more better than more refs. Calgary had a long wait to get a ref; Chicago, St. Louis, Detroit, Edmonton don't have one at all.
We're probably stuck with me and the occasional Leafs ref for a while. At least when the season starts, the rest of the refs are around more often.

I don't exactly understand the global hockeybuzz policy of (correct me if I'm wrong) offering home fans more lenience in their own blogs than other fans, but I think in general you and the others do really good jobs.
I feel like more bloggers would be good too. It's not that I find Cloutier to be terrible per se (at what he does), but teams like Vancouver, Toronto and Edmonton that are so heavily represented here deserve a couple of different perspectives.
