So, all I get to hear about and read about the past couple of days are “Boyle’s Big Blunder” or “Nabokov’s Non-save.”
Big deal. It’s done, it’s over, and you know what? It is NOT a measure of how the Sharks played or the merit of the team. They were better than Colorado. No one who watched that game could think otherwise. Whether the winning goal in overtime was just a dumb fluke or a momentary lapse of consciousness, it’s not going to win the series for the Avs. If they win the series it will be because of two people – Craig Anderson and Lady Luck.
Look for the Sharks to pin down Anderson tonight. With Heatley back in the game and standing in front of the Colorado net, the end of Sunday’s game will lose its place in the highlight reel.
And that’s all I have to say about that.
