SJ's goaltending is in turmoil. They way overworked Niemi during the season, plus, he went to Sochi. Even though he didn't play a single minute, the travel must have affected him, and Finland played a full set of games, so he couldn't leave early. Then, there was the huge celebration they threw for the team in Helsinki the day after the closing ceremonies. I think he started 61 games during the season. Claude was smart to go with Chad for the first two games after the break, and give Tuukka a rest.
Colorado had a great run, but by all rights they should have been eliminated last night. They got gifted game 5 by the horrible officiating at the end. They're a young team, and experience matters in the playoffs. And Roy has made some questionable coaching decisions along the way.
