LOL is that serious?  If there is one spot on the ice that a turn over is probably ok it was right there.  Anyways, yes, Turris is a much better hockey player than Spezza.

That said, Spezza just made a fantastic play there on the back check.

EDIT: Not that it could have gotten much worse.

We must be watching different games.  He's done as a legit threat 5 on 5.

You're correct.

Check your PVR.  You must be watching an old game.  Not saying this is Vintage Spezza but he is hustling out there, taking pucks away, winning face-offs.  

Gryba is standing around.  Cowen keeps overcommitting going for the big hit.  Anderson is letting the first 2 goals in.  Team is playing like they expect it.   Karlsson hasn't done anything Karlsson-esque yet.

Aside from him getting physically dominated on the first goal, yah, great period.  Did his line even have a shot?  I mean is the best people can come up with for Spezza at this point is "well, he's trying, you can tell". haha, has that what it's come down to?
