The reffing in this series is exactly what it needs to be right from round 1, game 1.
4-5 penalties total on just egregious infractions is perfect. It keep the influence of the officiating out of the results for the most part and dissuades the olympic diving charades. Both sides understand the "must commit murder" playoff standard and it keeps them working hard to earn those occasional PPs. Just how playoffs should be!
