Game 5
By At this point, this classic deserves an open thread. If there’s a World Cup game remotely as exciting as this one, I promise to spend 3 hours watching Marty St. Louis’s Game 6 double OT winner in the 2004 finals on a constant loop for 24 hours. (Note: I am the exclusive judge of this competition.)
Far be it from me to disagree with the wisdom of FIFA, the IOC, and Gary Bettman as applied to the regular season, but I’m going to continue to claim that it would not be better if this game was suddenly ended to have a penalty shot contest to determine the winner.
…congrats to the Kings; great team. (What odds could you have gotten on them when they were down 3-0 against San Jose?) Is Darryl Sutter a HOF coach? He’s certainly close.
