Not sure if anyone else is watching the MTL/TOR game, but it is thus far pretty incredible. Kadri's acting like the second coming of Scott Stevens out there, and the other shining star is Brendan Gallagher, who I still hope has cost at least one territorial scout of ours his job.
Both teams are chirping, hitting, battling, and it's just intense. I, for one, am concerned that we virtually never see this type of performance by the Canucks. It's like they're deliberately trying to lull their opponents to complacency on most nights. Which may be reasonable during the regular season, but, as we all know, the intensity gets turned up many notches in the playoffs. I have a hard time thinking that this team will be able to adapt, much like we weren't able to last year. The year before was a little different, and we didn't really have that problem.
Anyone else agree?
