    I trust my Datsyuk to the team's trainers, you should too.

    2009 Stanley Cup Final Photoshop War: Pittsburgh Penguins

    After seeing his contributions so far in this year's playoffs and remembering his crucial play in Game 6 of the Finals last year, the Wings petitioned the NHL to add a name to last year's Stanley Cup. The Wings' petition was granted...

    What's with the announcers questioning every time the Wings score? I don't remember them doing this yesterday. Sheesh

    Same here, if you don't arrive there at least 2 hours early, you'll be standing around for a long while. It's a fantastic atmosphere to watch a game. Highly recommended

    Stanley Cup Finals schedule

    The NHL website says TBD-evening, so I'm guessing in the evening, but they have determined if it will start at 7P or 8P.

    Stanley Cup Finals schedule

    Yeah, I was on too and had 3 changes to buy 2 tickets for about $240 each (plus the Ticketbasterd) fees. Too much money; I'll watch it in HD at home where the beer is cheaper!

    Pittsburgh Penguins advance to Stanley Cup Finals

    Yes, but most of our fans aren't bandwagon fans. Our team wasn't threatened with bankruptcy. Just a slight difference.

    Pittsburgh Penguins advance to Stanley Cup Finals

    I was way more nervous about the Ducks than Pittsburgh. Detroit is by far the best team left in the playoffs. It all depends on which Wings team shows up.

    Just wait, the boards will be loaded with ridiculous comments. If we win tonight, we will face another bag of bandwagon fans. Always enjoyable...

    Pittsburgh Penguins advance to Stanley Cup Finals

    The Bruins are not better than the Sharks. Both teams are playoff flops so it's hard to compare the 2, but the Sharks have way better depth and play a way more physical game than the Bruins. The Devils better than the Hawks is laughable. Hawks have more speed and depth as well. Devils have the edge in goaltending probably, but that's about it. The Ducks are more than OK; I hate the team, but if they had to face the Penguins, the Pens would be golfing w/o Lord Stanley's Cup for 2nd year in a row.

    Pittsburgh Penguins advance to Stanley Cup Finals

    Well see, here's how it works. The Eastern Conference will always have 1 team in the SCF and the Western Conference will always have 1 team in the SCF. By that point, all the dross in the Eastern Conference will have been eliminated. Once you get to the Finals, it's anyone's game. My point is while the Wings have (are having) a hard road to get there (say for Rd 1), the Pens have coasted to the Finals.

    Pittsburgh Penguins advance to Stanley Cup Finals

    I'm not making excuses. The Eastern Conference just had no depth this year (or in past years for that matter). The Flyers were a joke and were a waste of a playoff seed. Washington needed 7 games to beat the Rangers of all teams. The Canes scraped by the Devils and the Canadians had their bags packed before the series even started. I could go on, but it's pretty obvious. Basically whichever team decided to show up would win; this year it was the Penguins.

    Pittsburgh Penguins advance to Stanley Cup Finals

    Well we didn't have to play 3 AHL teams to get to the SCF; we only have played one AHL team (CBJ)
