[Paxon]

BOOOOOORING!!!

Sometimes those are the most exciting games, as long as the scoring chances are there.

Sometimes, but this was definitely not one of those times

 

[Bloody Sabbath]

Did Ovechkin play? If so, how well? Becasue I'm sure a lot of people want to know.

 

[Erik]

He didn't play.

 

[Slick Nick]

The play of the game is the singing of the Russian anthem! :lol

Can't stand that anthem

and cant stand two games without a goal from our players!

You thought you were bored listening to it - I paid $140 for two tickets to see that piece of crap.

I think the most fun anyone had at that game was booing Yashin.

 

[Douggy]

So I guess this solves some of the questions about Slovakian goaltending. Was Lasak in net?

BOOOOOORING!!!

Huh? How?

Big hits are exciting, end to end plays are exciting, big saves are sometimes alot more exciting then goals. I fail to see how a 0-0 game isn't exciting at times.

When you listen on the radio, a 0-0 game is very boring.

"WOW! Did you hear that huge hit!?"

 

[Rabid Ranger]

I can't believe the Russians can't score.

To be fair, it's not like they haven't had chances. Russia's just so happened to have run into quality goaltending over the past two games.
