Dull West

from The Spin, the blog of Damien Cox of the Toronto Star,
Of the top eight teams out west, only Minnesota, really, is a particularly interesting team to watch.
Anaheim, even with the fabulous Teemu Selanne, is very good and brutally efficient, but also deadly dull. Dallas puts my feet to sleep. Detroit, once the most exciting, skillfull team in the game, is now a snooze to watch. Calgary is fast and energetic, but it’s about defence and Mikka Kiprusoff most nights.
Even Vancouver, formerly a vibrant and often controversial team, has now gone vanilla.
It goes right through the conference. Dull, dull, dull. No wonder nobody wants to watch the back end of Hockey Night in Canada’s Saturday double-header anymore.
