LOL.

League officials are not going to conspire against Detroit. That's something Therrien would say about Pittsburgh.

Okay you're out.

Makes much more sense. Everyone here overreacting is definitely the most likely scenario. Everyone loves to hate the announcers and analysts.

Wow that surprises me because I remember a month or so ago, this group was talking and the question asked was something like, "Does having a European captain effect Detroit's chances of winning the Cup" and everyone said it was a stupid question that just shouldn't exist. People shouldn't even be thinking of them as a team with a Euro captain but a great team with an excellent captain.

Really? What they say?

Ugh. I'm too hungover for this. Come on Wings. Gees.

Not at all. I hate the Ducks. Just pointing out they don't actually have real fans.

Mainly because Anaheim fans aren't aware that they've been knocked out. They're still watching the Lakers. But I do have a lot of respect for Carlyle.

Takes more than that to make me angry, little fella. The videos were funny. I dunno, perhaps the difference between you and I is I have a sense of humour. I don't mind taking the piss out of myself. Maybe he's been an arsewipe in another thread I don't know - but I just think you're all being way too harsh on the guy in this one. So ease up, turbo.

Well I haven't seen any trolling from him and it's certainly not present in this thread.

Speak for yourself, man. The guy hasn't done anything wrong. Quit being such a knob.

I love Sid the Kid but that's pretty funny. I laughed anyway.

Montreal fans are the worst Canadian fans but IMO Flyer fans are so much worse. They're just pigs.

It's really sad when someone dies so young. I was unfortunate enough to have to go to two funerals for people from my old high school, both under 21. Seeing their parents was the toughest thing I ever had to witness. Terrible news. May he rest in peace.

Nope, Flyer fans are definitely the worst. Not even close.

IMO, I thought it was pretty fair. He didn't call them out - he just stated the truth. They were both spending way too much time on the ice. We don't need our forwards out there for 60-90 secs at a time. But ultimately, he blames himself for the loss. I'm a little disappointed Babs didn't roll the lines more. I thought being in the position he was in he would have not really thought too much about line-matching and just let the game flow and roll the lines. Instead he panicked when they scored early.

Wow. New Years in Chicago!!!

Kopecky's done til next year.

Awesome game of hockey. The fans got their money's worth. This loss was expected. Detroit will win game 4. When we're holding the Cup after game 5 I'll be happy that Crosby scored those two goals. A great team leader for sure.

I didn't think we'd win this game anyway. Them scoring on the PP had to happen our PK has been disgraceful all series. The result of game 4 is the most important one.

Detroit will lose this game handily without their special teams. Both PP and PK have been terrible and the Pens are very hard to beat in the Mellon 5 on 5.

No, Therrien will still coach them. I still think he's done a great job with Pittsburgh.

This will be Hank's team without a doubt. Pavel is great though.

We should win this game if our special teams can improve. They've been subpar in the first two games. We can't rely on Ozzie forever.
