This is the first time Wes McCauley and Kelly Sutherland have been paired up this postseason. Neither has officiated a game in Bruins vs. Leafs. McCauley worked with Tim Peel for Flyers/Pens Game 2, Jets/Wild Game 3, Lightning/Devils Game 4, and Preds/Avs Game 6. Sutherland, then with Eric Furlatt, handled Kings/Golden Knights Game 1, Jets/Wild Game 2, Preds/Avs Game 3, Ducks/Sharks Game 4, and Pens/Flyers Game 6.
