That Ottawa goal was gorgeous! All five were pretty impressive nice. I was happy to see Hudler get a goal early on. Here's hoping for a better season for him.
And absolutely re: Lidstrom. He's so good because he's so smart and plays the positioning game so beautifully well (and other reasons). I think it's probably part of why it took so long for the hockey establishment to realise how great he was! He never LOOKS like he's doing anything all that difficult.
Homer's getting up there in age too. It'll be the end of an era if we lose both of them after this year - already felt like that this summer losing Ozzie and Draper!
