I'd love to see Nash have a big third period. He needs to do some damage against a rivalry team to really put the icing on the cake.
 
See it's 2-2. How have they played? Just got back from dinner.

Generally they have played well. They certainly look faster on their breakouts/transition.

Some really dumb penalties. The Dmen look pretty shaky tonight. The forwards look pretty good generally speaking...

Nash is having a little bit of a hard time with the tempo. I think playing Richards screwed up his timing a little bit.
 
I was saying this the other day. He needs someone to create his chances for him, by drawing defenders away from him and leaving him with a chance to shoot. He's obviously never going to be able to split defenders like Nash, Datsyuk and Malkin and he's incredibly weak on the puck. I mean, the guy has 2 40 goal seasons in New York so the team is obviously better with him than without him, you don't just turn over a rock and find 40 goal scorers. Unfortunately though, he's incredibly inconsistent and that never bodes well when you play for a team in New York.
Gaborik and Datsyuk would be filthy good. Remember the All-Star game?
 
What are you talking about? Gaborik has made some good shots to the net today but Bryzgalov has made better saves.

He is not moving in the neutral zone, and he is gliding too much into open space. He has had a couple decent shots, but he isn't really creating or getting involved.
