You don't have to level guys but at least rub the odd guy out when the opportunity presents itself. This is the playoffs and your top line players should be leading by example. It shouldn't take inspired shifts by Versteeg and Bennett at the start of the second period to turn the game around.

If you're expecting Monahan to be physical you're going to be disappointed but Monahan has played an exceptional playoffs thus far. Fantastic in game one and really good in game two. His coverage in all three zones has been excellent
outside of scoring two goals.
