The NHL announced its officials for the second round of the Stanley Cup Playoffs on Monday morning, excluding three officials that refereed the Leafs in Round 1.
In Round 1, the Leafs were able to avoid Wes McCauley during their ‘Battle of Ontario’, but they may not have as much luck in the second round. Some of the more notable names that were cut from the scheduling include three officials that manned the Leafs-Senators series.
While the first round had plenty of questions surrounding the officiating across each series, the NHL kept most of their seasoned officials for the second round, despite some of them calling or not calling some egregious penalties.
Given the shorter list, it will be interesting to see who gets the call to kick off the second round with the Leafs and Panthers Monday, with Leafs Nation hoping to avoid McCauley for at least one more game.
