Stanley Cup Finals Game One

Some random thoughts:

• The Ottawa forwards had an off night. Spezza in particular looked terrible. I'm wondering if the nine day lay-off took its toll there.
• Heatley is gonna have to decide if he is a hockey player or a South American soccer forward. He can't keep falling to the ice every time he gets breathed on. His flopping is an embarrassment.
• Despite what the folks on Versus said, I didn't think either goalie let in a soft goal. Getzlaf did a great job making Emery think he might pass the puck and then slid that nice backhand shot by the goalie. You have to tip your hat to the forward there.
• Anaheim's physical play did seem to knock the Sens back on their heels, but I expect we will see Ottawa improve and compete better in game two.
• Surprise, surprise! Brad May CAN still play effective hockey! Who knew?
