from Ed Willes of the Vancouver Province,
Here’s the thing about trying to win a Stanley Cup playoff game 1-0.
You can string four men across the blueline and choke the life out of the other team’s attack.
You can make high-percentage plays and manage the puck until you’re blue in the face.
If you follow your game plan, you can even succeed in anesthetizing 22,682 frenzied Chicagoans in the city’s most important game in a decade.
But there’s also a flip side to playing anti-hockey.
If you’re playing the game in your end, if you’re constantly surrendering possession of the puck without attempting to mount an attack, you’re playing with fire and, against a team like the Chicago Blackhawks, you will be burned.

Oh, I don’t know. The first two games of the serie were pretty exciting.

Someone sounds bitter because their team is losing in the series…
