Stecher in is great. J. Skinner getting a chance is nice to see too. Need SOMETHING from the depth lines in this series.
And please stop starting every game with a stupid penalty Kane.

People really need to stop with this "taking" penalties thing. He was given penalties.
He made two plays that the refs decided to call because he's Evander Kane.
Both of those plays could just as easily not been called (see Bennett, Sam for a million examples).
And the idea that if they just play disciplined they won't get penalties is just something talking heads say on tv. It has nothing to do with reality. If there are no actual penalties the refs will make them up as needed. We know this.
Both teams will get roughly the same amount of penalties tonight. So you might as well make them count. That's the only issue I have with Kane. Next time actually give him a real cross check.
They are both going to get power plays (regardless of how they play) so they need to score on theirs and kill Florida's.

Kane took a dumb high stick penalty early in both games 2 and 3. That’s on him if he can’t play physical without getting his stick up around a players face. That has to stop. The cross check penalty was weak for sure but that is another play that is useless to him and the team. Stick to actual hits and getting in players faces. Lame stick plays that do zero damage aside from drawing the refs attention will get us nowhere.
How Kane played is a microcosm of the team. Trying to be physical but doing it in a very immature way. Florida guys just put their heads down and nail you hard and grab pucks and skate away. All the extra stuff is after whistles and trying to draw the immaturity in our players out with sneaky little extra chops or heavy leans into the goalie, hands in faces, etc… which seems to easily set us off into the danger zone of going over the edge to take a penalty.
