GDT: Atlanta Thrashers @ Toronto
Decided to put this in it's own thread instead of cluttering up the General Discussions
Man this has been a game that would be best-described as a see-saw battle. Sundin and Antropav vs Hossa and Ilja (I'm nto going to massacre his last name)
Some observations halfway through:
When you one of the worst PK vs one of the worst PP, it seems the PP wins.
Toronto.....man what is with their fetish with the penalty box? It's killed them for years, and tis' still killing them even now.
Speaking of horrid qualities, can someone tell Maurice that defence is what this team needs in spades? Watching players skate circles around the net without being challenged or hit.....that's just wrong. Of course it seems when they do, they do it in a way to get penalties so...
I really hate the excuses that announcers and fans have for Toronto losing. The icing issue that Atlanta scored off the next faceoff. They're arguing that the bad call was the reason they were behind 2-1. No, the icing put it in your zone. The **** defensive work on Ilja led to Atlanta's goal.
And last, but not least.....I love broadband TV. Go Atlanta, I need the win.
