FunkedUp

No he didnt touch it last year. Crosby was just asked that question and he responded by saying that he didnt touch it last year and they lost so he wanted to switch it up this time around.

Wow...a bunch of Pens just touched the Prince of Wales trophy. Usually its hands off until the big prize.

Well good for you, do you want a prize or something?

I didn't see a sweep coming...

Lets go Wings!!! Heres to a strong 1st period :beerbuddy: Mule will take charge and give us Arbys.

I don't think anyone needs to worry about rest, unless we go to 7. The first SCF game doesn't start till June 5th.

Datsyuk won't be back tomorrow, you can count on that. We really miss his defensive play and backchecking even if he stays off the scoresheet. Unfortunately, I think this case will be kinda like the Rafalski case...

I didn't think we were going to sweep this series and this was the Hawks best chance to take a game so it makes sense they take it. It's always tough to lose in OT though...

This is dumb. People act like they're on the team or something. This is an internet message board where things can be disscused. What else are internet forums for? If you're superstitious or don't want to talk about it then don't read these kinds of threads. The Wings are not going to play any worse just because EMALKIN posted on LGW.com posting about speculation...

Datsyuk breaks outta his funk and nets two. Mule scores as usual and Zetterberg gets an empty netter. Wings win 4-2 and set the tone for the series...

one thing thats for sure is that our PK would be much better with Lilja...

Wow. I didn't realize how spread out those games were at first. Three two-day breaks.

Okay...Pretty sure these numbers are correct. Quennevilles Current Record against the Wings.... Reg Season record vs the Red Wings 21-53-12. Postseason record vs the Red Wings 5-16. 45GF and 71GA for a 2.14GFA and a 3.40GAA

Yeah, I agree. Mule, Fil, and Hos will give the Hawks D a rough time...and thats after they deal with ZDH!

I probably would have went diabetic. My blood pressure is just getting back to normal now.

That 2nd goal was clutch!!!

As far as I was concerned Anaheim and Detroit were the best teams in the playoffs, and right now one of those teams is heading for the golf course. The west is much better than the east. Hell, I'm sure Nashville and Columbus could have put up a fight in the east. Just because the west has teams in non-traditional hockey markets (as the east does too) does not mean that those teams aren't very good. Also keep in mind that the east has a much more cakewalk traveling schedule. For example, the Bruins haven't even left their time in 2009 at all. The stars may be in the east, but the teams are in the west.

Thats true, but you should look at Q's numbers against the Wings. I'm sure someone will post the numbers... Wings in 5.

Duck Guy, you're a class act. I honestly wouldn't have been suprised if the Ducks pulled an upset. You guys took out the Sharks, who many people said were going all the way. The Ducks have a great future ahead of them... This will turn out to be quite the rivalry...

Game is tied 2-2.

If the Wings don't win tonight, then they will have no one to blame but themselves...

I honestly think that if we can drive through this game 7 then we can ride it all the way to woodward.

Are you serious? The Bruins would be fools to let Lucic go, especially for that proposition.

This is exactly what the Ducks want. They want to scrap with the Wings and get in their faces after the whistle. When the Wings do this they are falling into the trap. There is no way the Ducks are going to be scared of any of the wings, and I don't understand why people would say that. It's just too bad that nothing will come out of this at all, except for a bunch of slaps thrown by Rafalski and Datsyuk. The Ducks will be doing this all game on Thursday. Lets just hope our PP is on, or this series is over.

Holmstrom-Datsyuk-Hossa Franzen-Zetterberg-Cleary Hudler-Filppula-Samuelsson Abdelkader-Helm-Maltby Are you sure those are the lines? I thought Bab's would be rolling Mule, Fil, and Hoss after last games dominance.
