If you have road ice, you need to get a split at least. Home ice is a very slight advantage; 52.4% in the regular season. So 72.5% of the time you'd expect to be coming home with at least a split in the case that the teams are evenly matched and games are independent of each other.
History is full of players (great players in some cases) who got one shot at the Cup and lost. Can you imagine what they'd do for a five-day rewind?
I don't think getting kicked out of the game twice would be the plan.
