Welcome back for another play-off edition of Links, News, and Notes. Let’s take a spin around the hockey world:
- This first round hasn’t been very friendly to goalies so far. We’re not even halfway through the first round and there have already been two goalie casualties. In a thrilling game between the Penguins and Rangers Tuesday night, Casey DeSmith had to leave the game in a critical moment in the middle of the second overtime period. The bigger problem was that the Penguins were already without backup goalie Tristan Jarry who was also injured which meant they needed to rely on Louis Domingue who only played two games this season.
