I was intently focused on the game as well (unlike the other patrons around me). I distinctly remember a play in the 2nd period where Khabibulin was infused by the soul of Patrick Roy and made AT LEAST 4 saves in a row. Another couple great double-save sequences as well from him. Also, Mason was incredible as usual. Hockey "novices" don't give a [expletive] about goaltending... they want to see hits and goals and fights, this fight had none of the above. Sucks when you can't back up what you tell them about hockey. My friends seemed to have a lot of appreciation for the goaltending on both sides. We also watched the Wild-Wangs game earlier in the day, and one of my friends was raving about Backstrom. He's a potential convert. :) I am going to be heading home from this trip on Tuesday, and will hopefully get home in time for the game. I expect a similar game to tonight. And that's good for the Hawks. Every playoff-type game they play from here on out will only help them in a few weeks.
