Game Five Pop Quiz

What will your lasting image from Game Five of the Eastern Conference Finals be?

A. Max Afinogenov whiffing on a breakaway that would have won the game for Buffalo.

B. Jochen Hecht failing to beat Cam Ward through the five hole for the winning goal?

C. Cary Stillman’s OT game winner?

Nope, nope, and nope.

The lasting image is of that dumb-ass decibel meter that OLN kept showing.

Hey OLN, every arena is loud. When you cram 18,000-20,000 screaming people together it is pretty much guaranteed to be loud. Did they need to show that decibel meter every five minutes? I think not but obviously the producers at OLN think differently than I do.

If anyone spots the “Decibel Meter Man” at HSBC Arena tonight for Game Six and you feel the urge to beat him like a piñata, well, let’s just say that I won’t be the one to jump in and break it up.
