You will notice the year when the Anaheim/Sens went to the Stanley Cup finals that the refs called everything up until the finals, where they let everything go in the finals (hooking, tripping, interference etc.) This had really slowed down Ottawa since they were a team of speed and goal scoring. The ducks just used the clutch and grab and never got called for it. Effectively bringing the Sens to a halt. They had an extremely hard road to the playoffs and consistently dominated their opponents until the finals. Mind you all the teams they faced on the way there were significantly different (goal scoring, defence, well rounded etc.) If the refs kept their consistency of calls into the finals, the result would have been much different. Ottawa has won several cups in the past, and they will win another one.
