Ryan Warsofsky: "I Don't Know If I Can Say This" on the Referee Talk in Dallas

What did Ryan Warsofsky say to the referee in Dallas? A lot of San Jose Sharks fans were asking. In the Sharks' Nov. 7 game against the Dallas Stars, the head coach had a long conversation with the officials at the start of the third period. At the Sharks' morning skate before facing the New York Islanders at SAP Center in San Jose (Nov. 9, 2026), Warsofsky explained it wasn't about the headbutt: "I don't know if I can say this, but we called a dive on Marchment early and then we called another dive. So you set the precedent for the rest of the game by calling that. So that was the conversation that we had."
