I think you can safely assume that Nazem Kadri is absolutely fuming in the Calgary Flames locker room right now.

On Sunday night, Kadri appeared to snap at the National Hockey League's officials after a what he felt was a missed penalty call eventually led to a goal against his team.

The incident occurred with less than a minute to go during Sunday's game between the aforementioned Flames and Carolina Hurricanes. Kadri was attempting to play the puck along the boards when Hurricanes forward Taylor Hall closed the distance and delivered a hit that caught Kadri between the numbers. The hit would drive Kadri dangerously into the boards, but because of Kadri's actions the officials made the decision not to call a penalty.

Kadri spun and completely changed the position of his body a split second before Hall delivered the hit, with the officials clearly feeling that it was Kadri himself that had caused the hit to be a dangerous one. Kadri however was irate and remained on the ice to argue with the officials, something that in turn led to a goal for the Hurricanes.

As if that wasn't bad enough, Kadri continued to pop off at the officials after the goal and once he had returned to the bench. Kadri could be seen yelling down the ice as he smashed his stick against the boards, earning his team a 2 minute penalty for unsportsmanlike conduct and putting the Flames in a tough spot to start the game's third period.
