One game, score effects, blah blah, but... those Carlzner numbers are ridiculous. Is it even possible to have a bigger one-game dropoff from your best possession guy (Niskanen) to your worst (Alzner)? It's got to be some kind of a counting error?!
Anyway, the game itself was enjoyable, intensity was decent, it's something positive.

The hit is cleaner than a bottle of ethanol. Screw the DOPS.
If something happens here while Crosby gets off with nothing for deliberately hitting a player in the nuts with his stick - it's will be so obviously biased and I will really believe Canada does have something against Ovi
It's bs that they are even reviewing it. Just finding a way to put Ovie off his physical game. (Like they did after he crushed Campbell with a legal hit.)
They know he's going to be a wrecking ball in the playoffs.
According to CBJ fans, Ovi is one of the dirtiest players in the league and this is nothing new. This, of course, being a hit that, at worst, was a charging minor. It's awful that Werenski got hurt from it, but that doesn't magically make Ovi a dirty player. I don't get the rhetoric, guys and gals.
Overall, I do not want to play them in a playoff series if games turn into that. Things would get horribly dirty on both sides. That wouldn't be pretty.
The Campbell hit was worthy of a suspension, didn't like it when it happened. This one is nothing, a clean hit. It's reviewed because it's Ovi and the Caps and the hit injured one of the best rookies in the league.
Pot meet kettle. They're one of the dirtiest teams in the NHL right now, with that ****ing rat Dubinsky leading the way. Anderson sucker punched Ovi, of course he was going to take one back.

Lo and behold, Ottawa currently in the WC2 slot atm. Kind of sucks that we won't get a clear idea who our first round opponent will be until the very last couple of games or so.

I know there was tweet about Methot that the league wasn't even looking in to it. I would assume ROR was the same since there was no injury, and the league doesn't really care about those kind of plays unless they are egregious.Unbelievable this gets reviewed, but the crosby plays against
ROR and Methot didn't.
(Or were those reviewed, but determined unworthy of discipline?)

like I said. The Caps are mean and said bad words. Someone's mom complained to the principle. If Ovechkin gets jammed up for that after Crosby gets a walk for spearing a guy in the jewels and chopping off a guys freaking finger, then we can all stop worrying about the playoffs.
