The New York Rangers are ahead in the East Final, but are they really in control? Opinions differ, a bit like in the case of the other series, in the West, between Dallas and Edmonton. What is a little more unanimous, however: Jacob Trouba’s nudge was dangerous and should have led to quite a bit more than a fine of $5,000…
We also look back at recent moves in the NHL, including Sheldon Keefe to New Jersey and Don Waddell leaving Carolina. Also, the QMJHL representatives are in trouble at the Memorial Cup, and we are trying to motivate ourselves for the Four Nations tournament.

Players who arrive quickly and have success, we just have to think of Wyatt Johnston, for me his attention to detail is ahead of Alexis [Lafrenière] few years ago. But now he has adjusted.

You look at all the leagues where he [Sheldon Keefe] went from Junior A to the Ontario Junior League, to the American League, to the National League, these are all clubs that have outperformed all the time.
