nothing they HAVE to say.
probably “are you guys ready?”
The only thing the refs have to do at the beginning of the game and at the start of every period is signal the goalies to insure they are ready.

They count down
3 2 1. and drop it.
if there is something going on like when they switch a player, they see or sense that one is going to jump the gun and switch them out with another player.
Sometimes they will talk to both of them especially if there was a fight recently or maybe a dirty play, asking them to play nice.

if they are talking it is usually to correct one of the players, ie. sqaure up, move back, stick down or warn the next guy up after he throws one out that he will get a penalty if he messes up too. they wont talk unless they have to

Yeah it’s almost always dealing with the way the players line up. Placement of the center’s sticks and positioning of the wingers and defensemen around the faceoff.
