Wow Max, I thought I was serious about my hockey. I mostly agree with you. It is a team sport just like winning a race is a team sport but, if your best pit-person is hurt and you put a slower person that will affect the TEAM's outcome. Indy car races are won and lost in the pits all the time. Losing a pivotal person on the team will affect the line changes, the timing of the plays, everything they practiced since last fall. That said, by now, good teams go home and only extraordinary teams advance. By the time they reach the finals, they are playing hurt and purely on adrenaline.
As far as the bad calls by refs is concerned, there are always a few and yes, it is easy to judge watching the slow-motion replay 5 times. It just seems like this year they are making blatantly call in almost all the games and no team is immune but the best of the best shake it off and go get another face-off.
