Posted by This game featured some nasty goals, questionable goal-tending (I’m being nice here) and a first period that saw both teams fire a total of *cough* five shots. Combined. All that was needed was a few fights, some slapstick comedy (Manny Legace pissing all over himself after Hossa’s first goal would suffice), and Paul Newman and it would have been a pretty good remake of Slapshot.
Oh, and don’t forget Denis Lemieux.
