There have been a few good games that could have gone either way, and a few that were defensive, tentative, etc.
Personally, I don't need a truckload of goals for a game to be exciting. I have seen some terrible 3-2, 4-3 games. A tight game with some good chances, a nice build-up, some solid defending, etc. is more entertaining than a sloppy game that has more goals.
That being said, I'm not defending (no pun intended) some of the games thus far. There have been a few duds where both teams seemed content for a draw. I just don't think that ALL low scoring games are necessarily boring due to the score alone.
