Scott, the referee (white hat) is in charge of the officiating of the game, including interpretation of rules, and therefore should be the one taking the responsibility of upholding/overturning calls on the field as the leader of the officiating crew.
I don't have a problem if there is someone upstairs saying, "hey ref, you might want to take a look at that last play".
Hockey is a different game, the need for replay is rare, and more often than not does not call for the interpretation of complex rules, but whether the puck crossed the goal line completely.
