Tampa is basically running a PK box at 5v5 as soon as a Col puck carrier enters the zone. Avs haven't dumped and chased for entries.

Tripping, holding, interference etc doesn't exist anymore. Only things getting called are sticks to the face, too many men and pucks over the boards. It's stupid.

Unless a Colorado player stick checks someone and touches the glove by a hair, that’s a hook at least 50% of the time. 0% the other way.

It’s the old Seahawks pass defense approach. Committed PI on every play knowing they would get away with it 95% of the time. In the finals they know it won’t be called unless it’s egregious

ESPN's lack of replays throughout the playoffs has been disgraceful
The Sportsnet feed is so much better than the ESPN garbage. Since ESPN+ didn't come on until after puck drop, I wound up streaming the Sportsnet feed & sync'ed the audio to my TV, when ESPN decided to show up. While ESPN is wasting time with split screen commercials & Emily Kaplan, Sportsnet is actually showing replays & analyzing play. Go figure.

Part of the problem with why people in the States don't watch hockey is the bottom feeder broadcasting that we've had here since I started watching in the early 80s. The NHL is the only league where the good local broadcasts shit all over the National coverage.

I just can't root for a team that beat the Rangers twice when they got to the ECF twice in the past decade that whines as much as Pittsburgh.

Veteran gamesmanship to slow it down while Colorado is getting some momentum and starting to roll.

Speaking of Trouba, shout out to everyone roasting him for those weak holding calls in game 3 that TB has gotten away with LITERALLY EVERY SINGLE GAME ALL PLAYOFFS.
This series is deja vu of ours. Once it was once sided the refs swallowed their whistles which favored Tampa in both situations
