I like reading the fan forums, keep posting.
Five minute major was the right call. NHL officiating stinks in general and in this series but kudos for getting this one right.
3-0 Kings should be enough. I don’t foresee Quick faltering now.

Go Kings!

Thanks, Varda.

I can't argue with the five-minute major last night. I hate to see a call like that so early in a deciding game, but when you have a guy bloody and injured like that there's really nothing else the official can do but assess a major and a game misconduct.

To tell you the truth, I don't think it would have made much of a difference anyway. These Devils started to show signs that they were out of gas as far back as Game 5 of the Eastern Conference Finals (the Rangers outplayed them for most of Games 5 and 6 even though the Devils won both games), and there's no question that this Kings team was a machine that nobody was going to stop.
