So Imran, are you getting a bit worried there. Looks like the Devils are in deep trouble. The Sens controlled most of Game 6. Lalime was solid. The Devils were looking tired.
And you got to be worried about Broduer. Is he injured?
I still can't believe the Sens have come back and tied the series. They seem to have discovered some heart.

Seconded. Devils hooked, held, and obstructed their way to victory in that third period. Senators, despite outskating, outpassing, outhitting and outchancing them all period, made one mistake and it ended up in the back of the net.
The sequence that stuck out for me was with about six minutes left to play; the Senators were all over the Devils at that point and it seemed like just a matter of time. Two Senator forwards -- neither of whom had touched the puck -- were hauled down going to the net, with Mike Fisher ending up sitting on the ice with the goalpost between his legs. After the whistle, Fisher looked up at the ref with an expression that seemed to say, How much of this **** are you going to let them get away with?!
In October, that would've been a penalty. In May, the refs shrug their shoulders because 'the players should decide the games'. The part about 'within the rules' gets left off .
Well, the NHL gets the final it deserves this season -- two teams that between them had just one 80-point man and only 6 20-goal scorers, and depend on Defense, Defense, Defense with a side of Goaltending to win.
Colour me . I won't be watching. Call me in October.

Looks like Anaheim forgot how to play playoff hockey during that long break.
It feels like Brodeur is sending a message to Giguere - "I can play shutout hockey too, and I've been doing it longer than you!" The Devil's players are also taunting Giguere alot, which is kinda cheap (but part of the game).

This hurts bad...
Looks like the Senators/Devils series was the real finals.

Yep... that it is.
What has been striking is that the Devils are making Gigure look human. I mean any goalie will get lit up once in a while, but the Devils are doing it by destroying Anaheim's defense, which is very interesting. See if they can keep doing it. Maybe they saw something on tape that they could exploit (the Devils are very good at that). |
You're right about the defence, although there was one goal that Giguere should have had, that one that went past his leg.
Still, this is a boring series, because, and I really hate to say this, the Devils look unbeatable.
