Yeah man! I'm so freaking tired of the announcers and experts saying Detroit is boring to watch. Even Don Cherry said it. It's not that Detroit is boring, it's that the other team can't compete. Detroit is playing so much better, the game is a tad boring, because the Penguins can't match any aspect of the game. It's the Penguins fault the game is "boring." I wouldn't even say it's a boring game. They act like Detroit is the trapping New Jersy Devils in the late 90's. They aren't playing overly careful or overly defensive, because if they were they wouldn't get as many shots, chances and goals.
If you watch the game closely, it's the same play every time. A Penguin forward tries to beat 4 people in the offensive zone, he doesn't pass, he doesn't dump it in, he loses the puck, a detroit D throws it up ice, and they walk into the zone and get a scoring chance.
On another note, Zetterberg and Datsyuk are the best two forwards in the game today, miles ahead of Crosby or Malkin. Malkin and Crosby can score, but they don't kill penalties, and aren't solid defensively. Zetterberg and Datsyuk >>> Malkin and Crosby. Any day. The +/- says it all. They score, they defend, they do it all.
