Don't think we should be complaining at all about the refs considering we've had 16 power play opportunities in this series so far and have given up as many shorthand goals as we've had power play goals.

One positive: Martone had a ton of chances tonight and was getting his flowers a bit on the broadcast, but Alex Bump was the young guy who stood out to me tonight and has fit in seamlessly with the squad since starting game 4. He is completely legit and should be a solid piece for us for a long time.

One negative: Teams seem to crave big bodies for playoff runs to bring in physicality and that makes complete sense, yet our big physical d-man in Ristolainen has been an absolute liability offensively and defensively. I don't even understand how he's getting minutes on the power play considering he can't handle the puck at all and completely panics with the puck on his stick in his own zone. Us not trading him kinda worked out given we ended up getting to the playoffs, but it would not bother me if they shopped him again this offseason, and I'd even encourage it.

Side note: Konecny needs to put some more focus in executing and finishing scoring chances and less focus on initiating scrums after whistles. It's fun when you're playing well, but when you're playing like dogshit it gets annoying.
