wrong. starting game 4, and 5 Babymour complained that his teams abysmal performance on special teams was losing them the series.... so the officials went from calling 13-16 penalties a game.. to 6...
So the league, instead of calling the plays on the ice.. decides to give the canes a handicap that allows them to get back into the series.
This close to not watching this $hitshow sport anymore.
The only times I’ve seen Trouba out have been when the pp is about to end and it’s 2d.

Win tonight for me boys.
Have my brother in law’s wedding Saturday night. He and all the other groomsmen are NJD fans. Not sure there is enough whiskey at the bar to endure that.
Don’t want to be asking the board if anyone in here is a NJ divorce attorney on Monday.

Not sure about that. Last game he got just as much pp time as Fox/Gus albeit I know there wasn't much pp time to go around.
Game 3 he got 2 and half minutes to Gus' 3 minutes. Way too much time.
He should be getting zero time on the pp.

you said halfway through game 3...
don't take it personally. i'm on edge right now.
When they closed out this team 2 yrs ago in game 7... it was a brilliant game with Trouba knocking Jarvis into oblivion... scoring from all over the lineup.. and early. They kept their foot on the gas and the Canes' neck the whole game.
I'd like that game tonight please!

So much angst our here. Relax folks. Hockey tonight and we can't be eliminated. The lines will be whatever Lavy says they are. He's not shaking up PP1. He's not doing 11/7. He may or may not make other tweaks. Can't wait to watch a game where we can eliminate the other guys.

We don't have a functioning PP2 unit. Gus and Laf are the only players that really belong on that unit. Having Jones in the lineup would give you another puck handler on the blue line, but we have no triggerman. No one who is truly a threat that demands attention. So the canes can play their smothering, high-pressure PK style and we get nothing going. Maybe Othmann can be that guy, if he ever makes the big show.
From a practical perspective, I think you need to leave PP1 out there the whole time.

Depending on your goalie to get 40 saves every game is a tough way to win.
If the Rangers are in front going to the 3rd or in the 3rd and they turtle again, it's the coaching staff's fault.
If Fox was normal Fox, the Rangers would already be preparing for the next round. Sorry @Machinehead, but he is hurt. You don't have to be a doctor to see that.

After Madrid another Swiatek-Sabalenka final would certainly be fun, but it would be nice to see Collins go as far as possible.

Gus is good enough on PP2.
Replace Trouba and put Panarin out the entire 2 minutes. He doesn’t kill penalties and is one of the best in the league on the PP.
deploy Fox for only PP1. We can’t burn out our d-men, especially one with an injured knee.
Trouba doesn’t belong out there, despite his goal last game.

Yeah this is the thing that is so irritating about the officiating.
"Just let them play" and swallowing the whistles implying it's going to give us the most pure hockey. That's only true if both teams play a clean game.
If you're swallowing the whistle while one team is getting away with 10 penalties and the other team is getting away with 4 penalties a period, you're literally allowing one team to have an unfair advantage over the opponent.
Special teams are a huge part of hockey and taking them out of the game you're changing the sport. Would NBA refs stop calling fouls late in playoff games? Do NFL refs stop calling penalties in playoff games? No. Say what you will about the quality of officiating across sports, but NFL refs will make a penalty call on literally a super bowl deciding play.
NHL refs not calling penalties in the interest of 'fairness' is such a backwards way of thinking. You don't want to call the ticky tack hook in the corner or the rough after the whistle, fine. But penalties that are obvious (too many men, Burns breaking his stick on Mika's back) not being called in favor of game management is ridiculous.
Most importantly though, the PP needs to deliver. They had a PP in the third after Carolina tied it up on a delay of game penalty, you had to know that was all you were getting, and they had a terrible PP with basically no pressure.
