    Plus... they don't deserve the cup after that sorry display of zero class in the 3rd period after the game was out of reach. They looked like a pack of cheap shot artists.

    How about their *ahem* malkin's acts of zero class in the third period of every game thus far?

    Actually... not mad at that. He DID NOT show up last year. This year he is showing some heart.

    I think a game 7 would be nice for wings fans. Didn't they win the cup in Pittsburgh last year?


    I just realized that I have two finals on Tuesday that coincide with the game. Now I really hope it goes to game seven.

    Anxiety is killing me right now...

    This is for cove.

    Datsyuk reppin his hiphop side...

    Thanks.
    I've watched pretty much every youtube video of him that exists.
    Had never seen the Eric B & Rakim thing, but all the footage is golden and already in my mind.

    Will there be a game 7?
    Is Datsyuk stoppable?

    Holy cow. This will be nuts! Wings take the cup home in Detroit! Hasn't happened since '97!

    Congrats to the Pens. They certainly earned it.

    Holy shit! Nuts! Im in Colorado hugging strangers. I will revel in this all summer.

    WOOOOO! The celebration went to the same streets as the Super Bowl win. The cops shut it down way sooner this time around, though.

    CITY OF CHAMPIONS.

    TOP for monday, still feeling that buzz...

    i had a dream last night that the steelers won ANOTHER (7th) super bowl. like seriously in my dream i watched the last 2 quarters and the post-game show. living in this city just makes you feel like a champ!

    I watched the first two periods and then had to follow the 3rd on my phone from a rehearsal dinner for a relatives wedding. There were at least three of us at my table giving each other updates until it was over, and then there were quite a few other folks there with ties to Erie who were also checking in. What a great, and nerve wracking series!

    I like people around town talmbout "if the Pirates finish above .500, that counts. CITY OF CHAMPIONS."

  • covecove 1,566 Posts
    Wow. Totally outplayed Detroit in their own home.
    Det looked pretty bad, disorganized. Shocking.
    Deserved, Pittsburgh. Way to turn that season around into something huge.

    I'm usually an underdog supporter, so i'm not mad.
    I was one of 3 people in a packed bar cheering for the Wings, though. The Quebec factor, i guess?

    I did want overtime, though.

    Congrats to Pittsburgh and RAJ.

    The Red Wings were out-played when they wanted to be out-played.

    Detroit's defense looked disorganized and tired. They created a number of decent scoring chances, from what I remember, but Fleury and the rest of the Pens were definitely on.

  • dj_pidj_pi 335 Posts
    Very true.

    I actually did not like the Stuart - Kronwall pair. I thought both were relatively young and inexperienced. I would have split Lidstrom and Rafalski but...reports are now out on how Lidstrom went into surgery at the end of the third round and almost lost a testicle(!) and Rafalski was playing with 2 herniated discs in his back since the second round!

    Ah well...the playoffs are all about who can be healthy in the end. Next year guys...
