Because if McGrattan is in the penalty box who can Hartley put out there to kill any momentum they build up? After a goal you can't just throw anyone out there to get the other team back into the game.

As much as McGrattan and Jackman should've done something, Hartley gave them little to no ice time to do that. Unacceptable.

He gave them about 10 minutes more than they deserved based on their play this year/ability.
