Witness one of the many exhibits of why Round 2 of this year's playoffs totally sucks: Alexander Ovechkin's knee-on-knee on Sergei Gonchar.
Normally in circumstances like this I would get riled up on behalf of the wronged party but...it's the Penguins. I mean, I'm not at the point where I enjoy seeing people getting injured. But it's the Penguins. And of course the League isn't going to be doing anything about it because it's Ovechkin and to take away even just one game of the EPICOHEMGEE CROSBY VS. OVECHKIN marquee would be to put a dagger in the heart of the MSM.
I'll be watching the match-up tonight and yes, I will be cheering for the Capitals if only because Ovechkin is in my playoff pool. I've been a terrible little blogger lately and hope that will change once training camp opens and we're all filled with the happy optimism that preludes the eventual disappointment and bitterness. Hourray!
One thing to look forward to, thanks to Five for Smiting, our Swedish Saviour has arrived!.
