Antropov A Flop in Playoffs

Damien Cox at the Toronto Star writes that Nik Antrpov's reputation of not being regarded as a big-game player is holding true in this year's playoffs...

"He hasn't scored in the last five games, and along with Nikolai Zherdev and Markus Naslund, Antropov is being fingered as one of the offensive culprits behind New York's collapse after once holding a 3-1 lead in this Eastern Conference series with Washington that will conclude with a Game 7 tonight."

Cox adds that Antropov now has only three goals in 34 career playoff games.

...this reputation all goes away if Antropov can get a couple of goals tonight.
