As much as I love Pittsburgh for giving me the Steelers I'm afraid I just can't get enough of Detroit winning.

Tradition my friend. and no I don't think there is a 16 legged animal that is easy to sneak into a stadium.

Or lots of alcohol, red and white face paint, a sens jersey, a ticket to the final game, and a guillibe alcoholic...

[QUOTE="Recontrooper"]Go RED wings!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!LJS9502_basic

I live near Pittsburgh, so excuse this:

THE PENS WON 4 -1

sorry Carolina...

[QUOTE="Sajo7"][QUOTE="Mikey132"]

A bit off topic, but I hate how Detroit is called Hockeytown. I'm a Leafs fan living near Toronto, that is the true Hockeytown and the center of the Hockey universe. Hockeytown U.S.A is what they should be called.

Who cares if Toronto hasen't won a Cup in 40 years. They sell out every game and make more money than any other team in hockey. The wings are my second fav team so I'm not trying to start an argument.

Mikey132

Chicago only cares if thier team wins, which is why hockey almost failed there over the last 6 years. Between the other 5 teams, you can't beat what Toronto brings to the table in terms of fans. Second would be Montreal, and they still only get good attendance with a winning team. Toronto could go 20-62 in a season and still make more money from selling out every game.

i still have my fingers crossed that the hawks can make a comeback and go on to the finals but the stats are against themFUBAR24

Khabby and Havlat will not be playing tonight. The officiating in that game was absolutely absurd, btw. I'm not saying there's a conspiracy or anything, but half of those penalties/offsides calls were wrong. And how does Franzen not get an Unsportsmanlike Conduct penalty for ripping Kane's mouthguard out and throwing it on the ice in front of a ref, but Eager gets tossed for saying "Who paid you off?" to a ref. DarkPrinceXC

I don't like refs but if I was one being asked that question would be the most offensive to me. I think there is an unwritten rule that says "if you present your mouth guard you are open to having it being taken away"

The Penguins shut down Carolina in four games and are now heading back to the Finals. This might just be their year. Go Pens.

Crosby screwed up holding the conferance trophy he doomed his team. The Red Wings are gonna take it again. Corsby better keep his head up when Kronwalls on the ice.

GO WINGS!!!!!

Did you see what Crosby did?!?! Well the Wings win automatically.

EDIT: Oh god no, he didn't did he?

Doesn't anyone get tired of Detroit winning? Besides it's Pittsburgh's year. We won the Super Bowl...now we need the Cup.

I can understand how you would want to see the look on Hossa's face if they lose. I'm a Leafs fan and I had the joy of watching CuJo go to Detroit to win a cup. Lol too bad Hasek came back and CuJo spent most of the year on the bench lol. The Leafs might have had a chance if he stayed, we still had a great team but no Goalie and it burned us. And I think Detroit got swept in the first round that Year.

Once the NJ Devils got elimimated, the NHL was done for me..

1-1, going into overtime. This has been THE best game of the season IMO, and Huet just extended the Hawks season another period with an amazing save. LET'S GO HAWKS!DarkPrinceXC

Pens are gonna be blown away now.

to everyone who's saying the pens are gonna lose just because Crosby touched the trophy look at when we won our other cups. Lemieux did the same thing both times! so if anything itd be bad if he DIDNT touch the trophystarwarsjunky

I agree, the only bad thing for the Pens is they have to play Detroit. And that probably won't go over too well for the Pens.

EDIT:I find it kind of funny to that Pittsburgh and Detroit are the only 2 teams to win back to back Cups in the last 20 years.

Hell yeah. I hope the Penguins shut the Red Wings down. In a way, you have to admire the Red Wings for all the hate they endure. Everyone hates them for being good. Kind of unfair in a way.cu_be_cie

W00t pens!! So, the Canes beat the first place team only to be swept by the Pens? Methinks the Wings won't have it so easy this year...Engrish_Major

West>East,'nuff said.They're both the same teams as last year except Hossa left Pittsburgh and joined Detroit,I see no reason why Detroit will lose.
