Similar to Game 4 against Calgary, once it got to 3-0, there was not going to be another penalty called against the Ducks unless they impaled someone.
Championships are now won by rogues, not by skill.

Anaheim beat Edmonton in every metric through 60 minutes. They were only behind in one category (even strength scoring chances) for the complete game.
And Edmonton's third goal which was scored with help from what shouldve been a high stick/interference penalty. Kesler fumbling in the crease after getting knocked over and prevented from getting up is open to interpretation, a stick to the chops isn't.
