I'm not sure I follow this logic and playing Devils advocate here too... having watched the game, I didn't find it entertaining. I absolutely agree that they did what they needed to, to win but if this was at home, would it be satifactory given that our style is dull and not entertaining but because we played away and won, it's ok? Genuinely interested in people's opinions as opposed to being argumentative.
In addition, PR's comments after the last game was about no fight in the players (paraphrasing) and "no checking until the 3rd period" and how much that upset him, so you would expect the opposite from the team the first chance they get, against Manchester. Surely he doesn't want to see that fighting spirit and physical contest at home games only???
