We are well into the first round of the Stanley cup playoffs now, and while no series has been a sweep, there are a few potential series' that could finish at 5 games.
The series between the Dallas Stars and Minnesota Wild though will not be one of them as they are current tied 2-2 in the series. They play eachother tonight and at the time of writing it is 2-0 Dallas, one goal of which, came just over 2 minutes into the game after a 5- minute major penalty was issued.
Marcus Foligno has been having some troubles with the referee's in the playoffs and has called them out on multiple occasions.
Tonight, he will be just as angry, as 2 minutes and 14 seconds into the game, Foligno delivered a knee-on-knee to a Dallas Stars player, which got him a game misconduct penalty:
Marcus Foligno has received a 5 minute Major and a Game Misconduct for kneeing on Radek Faksa.
