McCauley and Charron are officiating their second game together of the 2019 Stanley Cup Playoffs after working Game 2 of the Western Conference Final between the San Jose Sharks and St. Louis Blues. They were joined by linesmen Scott Cherrey and Derek Amell, who are also working tonight’s game.
McCauley was paired with Brian Pochmara for Rounds 1 and 2. In the opening round, they refereed PIT/NYI Gm 2, TBL/CBJ Gm3, BOS/TOR Gm4 (BOS W 6-4), and DAL/NSH Gm5. McCauley worked BOS/TOR Gm7 (BOS W 5-1) with referee Kelly Sutherland. The second round saw McCauley and Pochmara handle CAR/NYI Gm1 (CAR W 1-0 OT), STL/DAL Gm4, CBJ/BOS Gm5 (BOS W 4-3), and SJS/COL Gm6 . Once again, McCauley was paired with Sutherland for a Game 7; the duo worked COL/SJS Gm7.
Charron officiated Round 1 with Gord Dwyer, handling CBJ/TBL Gm1, WPG/STL Gm3, NYI/PIT Gm4, VGK/SJS Gm5, BOS/TOR Gm6 (BOS W 4-2). He worked with referee Dan O’Rourke in Round 2, working CBJ/BOS Gm1 (BOS W 3-2 OT), CAR/NYI Gm3 (CAR W 5-2), and SJS/COL Gm3. Interestingly, both of Charron’s partners – Dwyer and O’Rourke – are working the Conference Finals with new partners.
Scott Cherrey and Derek Amell manned the lines during Round 2 for DAL/STL Gm1, CAR/NYI Gm2, SJS/COL Gm4, CBJ/BOS Gm5, and COL/SJS Gm7. In the opening round, Amell was paired with Andrew Smith for PIT/NYI Gm1, TBL/CBJ Gm3, WPG/STL Gm4, COL/CGY Gm5, and SJS/VGK Gm6. Cherry handled Round 1 with Devin Berg, officiating PIT/NYI Gm2, WSH/CAR Gm3, NSH/DAL Gm4, and BOS/TOR Gm6.
