I am not sure I actually believe that but I like the sound of it.
Tonight they should have kept up the the energy and attack of the first period but they went into defensive mode and forgot their best defense is their relentless offense.
Not only is it a young team vs an older squad, but it is new school hockey against a more old fashioned type of game. Cooper is definitely impressing me as a coach and I think he is going to make adjustments to counter like he did so well to neutralize NY.
I think it will be a great series if Bishop locks it down and doesn't blow his cool.
Hossa to me is amazing and I think he spends a lot of time in the shadows of Kane, Toews and Sharp but considering that it is the twilight of his career that is just life and the way the puck drops. He plays up and down and two way players like that are always the kind that really make the difference at this point. Morrow impresses me the same but of course for Tampa.
