Couple explanations I'd like about the rules if possible.

On the Swayman penalty, its the position of the puck, not the goalie, right?

On the icing post 4-on-4, did the refs mess up that call, or can you only start icing once the devils player has exited the box, regardless of when the power play ends?

1. Yup.
2. PP ends when the clock hits :00. Refs must have seen(or thought they saw) time on the penalty clock.

It just feels like they are getting pushed around, even when they have sustained time in the O zone, there isn't any room for them to generate chances, and they lose the puck with any kind of contact.

I have been positively noticing Zboril so far this period. I don't think I've been able to say that about him before. Good positioning and good passes to open guys.

I don't know. Two Bruins lost puck battles along the boards right before Coyle coughed it up. Seemed self inflicted to me.
Coyle’s pass hit the ref’s skate and bounced in front of the net. They had possession and would have cleared easily.
