Kelly Hrudey is too stupid to know about the Wings winning streak in closing out series.

Right, but I've soared to greatness since then. Also, I didn't mean to be harsh, it's just that you started it. Why are people here always bashing and attacking each other? I never do that unless someone does it to me first. I've heard more FU's here tonight directed from one poster to another than I ever have before. Grow up people. You blame some of us for being pessimistic, yet keep saying FU to every other poster who happens to share that feeling. I swear, the hypocrisy here is just ridiculous sometimes.

Finally we win a game that we deserve to win, when we outshoot the other team badly. Well, as I called it, whoever wins game 5 will win game 6, and I'm sticking to my pick. There will be no game 7, especially with the Wings winning streak in closing out games.

Just put me on ignore, and stop surprising me with meaningless posts, because I've never even heard of you.

I know! This could be the turning of a new leaf.

I just got pleasantly surprised in life. I guess there's a first time for everything.

The sad thing is that they don't have Arnott or Legwand tonight. This would be an embarassing loss for many more reasons than one.

I hate how life is always so predictable following in the same patterns. Now if we could score in OT, then I'd be the most surprised person on the planet.

We destroyed Calgary in game 5, this looks like the Anaheim game as I called it at the end of the 2nd.

Drake needs to run him, to rattle him a little. Common Drake you always did it against us, now do it for us.

How many useless slapshots have we taken in this game, where Ellis has a good view of the puck? Yeah, it worked for Arnott in game 3, but usually those types of shots don't go in. Like I said, we need more deflections and dirty goals. Like the ones Trashville gets.

Why can't our guys ever get deflection goals like everyone else does on us? It's the quality of the shots that counts, and not the quantity. We need to send more people to the net for deflections, and our D has to get shots through. Our defense has done nothing offensively in this series.

Yeah, but the point is the game went to OT. This could be in the makings for the same result. I hope this team hasn't forgotten that game. Also, it looks like Sammy has infected everyone to shoot at the goalie's crest, with the exception of Flip on that 1st goal.

This is reminding me of game 5 last year against Anaheim. We need a bigger lead.

There is no game 7 in this series. Whoever wins this game will win the series in 6.

It's good to see fans showing passion, and they're real hockey fans, not like those cow-bred hicks in Trashville. I have no problem with this, and I wish Wings fans were passionate enough to shout chants like this at Tootoo or Pronger.

He'd be a great enforcer along with PAIN TRAIN and Downey. Sign him Kenny.

Until we win tonight. Of course if we don't, then expect this thread to be 10 times as long, even though he isn't even playiing.

Rumor is that he blames Lidstrom for all his soft goals. Just adding a little fuel on the fire.

Well, I guess he can't be any more useless than Hartigan, but I'd still like to see Downey play, to give us a true checking line.

Don't forget Kariya played there too.

Lilja + Downey > Lebda + Hartigan. It's that simple.

People here are concerned because they've seen this too many times in the past. Every other season since 2000, the Wings have been eliminated in the 1st round of the playoffs, despite having one of the top 2 or 3 records in the league. Basically the Wings are like the boy who cried wolf, so it's only natural for some people to not believe their regular season successes anymore. I still think we have a great chance to win this series, but I wouldn't be surprised anymore if we lost, based on our history.

Having veterans is the most overrated thing in sprots as the Wings have shown in meltdowns in the past. The younger teams seem to be hungrier than the Wings, which more than makes up for lack of veteran leadership, especially when you consider that the best leadership is that by example.

Or as Sinatra would say.... Bewitched, bothered and bewildered.
