not a team left who plays free wheeling hockey  |
really? i think its cause teams have guys dropping to block shots, playing defense, outstanding goaltending. of course the first round was high scoring, you have to weed out everyone that isn't as good. i don't really equate this to hockey on ice, and if you know good soccer you don't say its not exciting
