Controversial Calls & The Oilers Goaltending Problem
Boston Bruins fans were up in arms on Sunday night as a controversial goalie interference review didn’t go their way and allowed the Panthers’ eventual game-winning goal to stay on the board. Jason and Frank started the show with that and then eventually moved on to the rest of the series between Boston and Florida, including another controversial moment involving Sam Bennett.
They also hit on the other Eastern Conference series between the New York Rangers and Carolina Hurricanes. The Canes are on the brink of elimination and the odds seem low that they’ll be able to pull of this comeback against the Rangers and that led to a conversation about what the franchise will do in the offseason.
From there, they got to the Oilers and Canucks series. Goaltending has been a massive story in this series as Stuart Skinner was pulled in game three and the Oilers are down 2-1 despite controlling play for the majority of the series. Will the Oilers make a change in net ahead of game four? Or will they keep riding Skinner? They debated that and other potential lineup changes for the Oilers ahead of Game 4.
They also talked about the Stars taking over their series against the Avalanche. What allowed this series to flip? Frank gave his take on that.
They wrapped up the show with a new edition of Fill in the Blank and some talk about the coaching carousel that’s currently going on in the league.
