Maybe refs want a Canada team to win?

Very obvious wrong calls.

Bussi should play game 3 over Anderson

Canes are now 2-17 in the ECF

3-2 Canes

Still Bussi should play over Anderson

Would hate to be a goalie playing under you.  One loss in 10 post season games and you get the hook.  People were critical of Hynes for pulling Wallstedt after giving up 8 against Colorado in game one and he had already lost a few playoff games.  Who knows how that series turns out if he would have stuck with Wallstedt in game two.

Bussi was the better goalie all season and Anderson has a god awful record in the conference finals. The second goal shouldn't have happened if Anderson would have put his paddle down.

1.55 goals against and .927 save percentage doesn’t scream yank someone, especially when those stats include a game where the whole team was terrible coming off an eleven day layoff.  His counterpart, Dobes has a 2.51 goals against and .909 save percentage.

 Bussi had a great regular season, but had his issues down the stretch, which is why they went with the experience in the first place. 
Pulling their goalie after their first playoff loss would have told the team it is time to panic after one bad loss in which the whole team was to blame.
