Look, I like Nabby.
I mean he is overrated. After all he's the guy we kept instead of Mikko. So he has to be great, right?
I've never seen Nabby be the guy who steals the big game.
I've seen him implode regularly.
And today we saw an implosion.
Like Brodeur, his limitations were put on display in a memorable historic game.
Brodeur will be the guy who lost to the US. The first loss to a US team since for-ever.
Nabokov will be the goalie who let in 6 goals on 23 shots.
And the sad truth is that there was an option that was better. bryzgalov. But Bikhov had a dumb idea, and didn't let go of it.
I mean what is it with Russian Coaches? In 1980 Tikhonov doesn't play Tretiak. In 2010, Bikhov doesn't play Bryz. Maybe there is justice in that ... for Canada not for Russia.
