But after all...backchecking? Like, what's the point? It's not like you can celebrate after a great defensive play when you break up an odd man rush, right? Save your energy for one of your 15 shots.
Excuse me I stand corrected...upon a further glance at the Box Score, Alex only took 6 shots, much less than the 0-13 effort in Game 1. He also had 5 giveaways and Zero takeaways.

These are always a hoot. The Yinz Luv 'Da Guins doods are back. Game 1's recap is funnier than Game 2's, imho, but if you stick around til the end in Game 2's recap, there's a funny little treat in there, thanks to Dave Tirpak...

Ovy > Sindey
There was a time when I could see that argument. But until Ovy decides to play both ends of the rink, he'll be outside the Top 5 of all-around forwards in the NHL (Malkin, Crosby, Datsyuk, Zetterberg, Hossa). He doesn't take draws, kill penalties, or know the meaning of back checking. Nor is he a team leader.
He garners a lot of attention with his enthusiasm, goal celebrations, and cowardly runs...which will help win him the Hart. But the aforementioned 5 know how to win when it counts.
so there!! :)
Wait...HOSSA knows how to win? When did that happen?
And when does a Top 5 not include Iginla? Thornton? Your list is broken.
You are correct, sir. Revised list: Iginla and Big Joe ahead of Ovy as well.
:)
and hey! Hossa has gone further in the playoffs than Ovechkin has.
