I still can't believe Dougie Hamilton fell to 9th overall... Bruins just seem to have everything fall into place..

I know I complain about low scoring games being boring (see: San Jose vs. Detroit last Thursday Night), but This Detroit/Chicago game is probably the best game I've seen all year, beating out Philly/Pittsburgh. Scoring chances, fast pace, hard hitting, epic goaltending. This is why I love Hockey and this is how I love for Hockey to be played. Awesome Awesome Awesome game.

But Detroit/San Jose wasn't boring...

I've never really been overly impressed with Seguin. Dougie Hamilton is a major prize though.

They both are. I watch all the Bruins games and Seguin is an amazing player. He plays impressively in all 3 zones, he's almost like a faster skating bigger built Couture. If he was on a more offensively oriented team I think his skill would be more evident.

You're probably right. I've only seem him a handful of times and just kind of wasn't really a factor.

Exactly. When I think of a boring game..i think of Sharks/Coyotes.

Ok, I grant you Sharks/Yotes was a much more boring game. Detroit/SJ was ok, but I felt it wasn't "exciting". Maybe a better term to describe that game would be "sloppy". Today's game though was crisp, fast, and just a hell of a lot of fun to watch.

It was very sloppy but both teams played hard and physical. Sharks/Yotes is usually sloppy and boring with the Sharks outshooting the Yotes who sit back and wait.

It's hard to make an argument against how boring defensive hockey is when the total shot count is 5 after 15 minutes.

Lol. Getzlaf gets a short-handed goal, 2 assists in a 5-4 shootout loss and doesn't even get a star. Micheal Stone and his 1 assist in 18 minutes got one. :laugh:

What the hell man, the Preds actually OUTSHOT the kings with 18 shots. The Kings had 16 shots and scored 5 freakin' goals!
