I'm betting he had the top pairs out against the better players of the Canes, along with the Backlund line. Then he tries to play the Monahan line against their bottom guys and it's the third pairing's turn for a shift. And of course he's giving them a shift right off the bat. What coach shortens the bench two or three shifts into the game?
The lines got seriously messed up because of penalties. That was a way bigger factor.
