I'll start off by admitting that I have only seen 4 games this season...........
Ott/Tor
Tor/Mon
Col/Van
Minn/Van

These 4 games have been among the Worst games I have seen in years .The Van /Minn was BORING beyond words.
The lack of emotion in these 4 games that featured so called Rivals astounds me.




oops
I also saw the snoozefest known as Van/Det
Somehow I forgot this classic .

It might not just be you.

Some games got it, some don't. But the BHL is alive and well- several shootouts already, lots of holding/hooking calls, unbalanced schedules, goalies with points (at one point, Cam Ward was tied for the League lead), and no respect for some of the better players (like Ovechkin).

To be fair, I guess we have to give the season 15-20 games to sort out the stuff.

An aside- you're still greatly missed over on the official boards. Just wanted you to know.

During the Mon/Tor game Bob Cole(HNIC announcer) lamented that when the game finally got a little edge ,the Refs began calling pens.
Sucked out what little life there was in the game .

Lastnight's Minn/Van game was awful !
Even the Nucks radio crew made jokes about if anyone was still awake at the end of the game .

Stolen from official, a post by Shaggy about the game:

I watched most of the VAN/MIN game - Vancouver has been playing a 1 -2 -2 , so they didnt resemble their high flying scoring machine of old. Both teams got back on D all night. And that was the whole game, up and down the ice. Neither goalie was really tested, as little in the way of scoring opportunities were being generated. Very tight checking. You felt the game was going either way, but Luongo had a 1-0 lead going into the 3rd, and being a Caps fan, that's when we pee on the fire and call in the dogs.
This grinding style of game continues with the Wild even with the addition of the amazingly talented Rolston, Gaborik, and Demitra. But they tied it only on a fluky goal, depite putting 35 mostly pedestrian shots on goal. Luongo gave let in 3 of the 4 shootout tries, go figure.
The Wild like to pinch in on the PK because of their phenomenal speed and seem to generate at least as many shots on their PK as the opponent. One lazy pass and they are down the ice, they dont care about conserving strength and dumping it down the ice.
Fernandez is a good, not great goalie, IMO.. He gives them a chance to win most nights.
