YoungGuns1340 1 Report post Posted March 9, 2008 Malkin with 2 assists, Ovechkin with 2 assists. I want Ovechkin to win the Art Ross and Rocket Richard trophies so bad, so Im loving this. Hell probably win the Hart as it stands. Hes just been phenomenal this year. My favorite player not in a Wings jersey bar none, and thats actually mostly because of his attitude. Hes an awesome guy off the ice too.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Louisville 112 Report post Posted March 9, 2008 my bro is watching the game and he said Pierre McGuire said something positive about Datsyuk during the 2nd intermission Yes, he was talking about Datsyuk's great vision and how he makes everybody around him better. He also said something about how Forsberg is playing, and Mike Milbury had to add some dickish comment about Pierre picking two Europeons to talk about.

ShanahanMan 473 Report post Posted March 9, 2008 wow....that is the most intentional looking "scoring into own net" that i have ever seen. I mean......wow. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ShanahanMan 473 Report post Posted March 9, 2008 (edited) it didn't even look like he was trying to poke check or clear.....it SERIOUSLY looked like he intentionally shot it into his own net. cant get over that Edited March 9, 2008 by ShanahanMan Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NeverForgetMac25 483 Report post Posted March 9, 2008 I watched the game as well, and I'd be absolutely sick if I were Backstrom. Very good game though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Detroit # 1 Fan 2,204 Report post Posted March 9, 2008 Gotta feel bad for Backstrom, but that was a great game by Pittsburgh. And that play by Malkin there shows the guy knows whats up, goes to block the pass, gets the puck and gets his 3rd assist. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

seeinred 1,488 Report post Posted March 9, 2008 Great game, the Caps are always entertaining to watch. I agree about Backstrom, too, that didn't look even remotely accidental. I thought Washington deserved the win with the way Huet was playing in the 3rd and the missed interference and tripping calls, but them's the breaks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Saran 1 Report post Posted March 9, 2008 That was an amazing game ... Sucks that the Caps lost though Ovy was devastated when Backstrom scored on his own net ... Ovy really wants the playoffs. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BeeRYCE 2 Report post Posted March 9, 2008 It did look like he intentionally put it in... With McCabe putting it in his own net against Buffalo, it looked like he was trying to clear it, this just looked brutally intentional. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yzerfan1999 81 Report post Posted March 9, 2008 Really exciting game. Crosby and Malkin were unreal in the third, chance after chance. Those two have amazing vision. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Yellowknife Redwing 57 Report post Posted March 9, 2008 Did anybody see how well Fedorov played in this game? He was absolutely terriffic QB'ing the power play with Ovechkin, made good outlet passes and backchecked well. I think it's a real shame that we didn't pick him up, considering the price that was paid for him. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
