    Win This One For....

    Dude did someone beat you with a rubber hose mister puck? If so they should have. This was meant to be a positive thread. Your are just downright and damn ignorant if you think that any of us that say "win it for the unemployed" say it because we believe that would create jobs. I mean c'mon dude don't be a tool. We say that because if they are Wings fans, it's at least a temporary distraction. No I don't live in Detroit, but I live in the poorest state in the union so I don't give a damn about you and your high horse "you don't understand cuz your not a michigander" attitude. The Wings winning the Cup will give a lot of fans all over the country that are all facing the same bulls*** economy we are all facing a few days at least to enjoy the win and celebrate the Cup.

    Respect to Penguins

    It was a lot easier to hate the pens when they had a douchebag of a coach. Now that they have a respectable coach that doesn't make excuses I kinda like their coach. That being said GO WINGS!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Funny thing about the "attack site"

    Seems every time a whole bunch of the other teams fans come around and try to talk trash and then are greeted with logic and facts, Letsgowings starts to pop up on my attack site warnings list. Hmm... interesting

    How To Handle Game 7 SCF?

    Hits of acid and it may look like the puck is going to fly out of the screen at you.

    Mr. Hockey having a tough time

    If anyone sees his at game 7, I know that we all have massive respect for Gordie but show him some extra love. Tell him how much you appreciate him being there and all he's done for the city, the team, and hockey.

    Did I miss something last night?

    Both the NHL, MLB, and NFL have agreements with an organization called Worldvision. If there are shirts printed that aren't used i.e there are penguins and Wings stuff and only one will be used, then the other is given to worldvision to give to children in africa for clothing.

    And the Penguins are playing for the Stanley Cup!

    And that's the difference in Detroit and Pittsburgh. Pittsburgh can't understand why someone would leave their hockey team for another team. Detroit fans understand salary cap and the other various factors that cause players to pack their bags. The difference is that Detroit fans will usually cheer a former Detroit player to be successful if they played here long enough. (see Federov). Pitt fans feel that anyone who dares leave their team is a traitor and should be treated as such. That's why they don't deserve to lift the Cup because their fans don't have the understanding of the most basic ideas of hockey to be able to appreciate the Cup.

    I think this is appropriate.

    Some Red Wings that I have really grown to respect in this series

    That says it all right there. Don't get me wrong the Pens are no pushovers, but there is no reason this should be going to 7 games. It wasn't the Pens skills or will that pushed this to 7 games. It was the fact for games 4 and 6, Detroit tried to win on talent alone and went into relax mode. I think the Pens are a good hockey team, but the Wings deserve some credit for making this series go to 7 games as we all saw last night.

    When Pavel Met Evgeni--The turning point of the series

    Oh I know what play you are talking about. You are talking about the one where Datsyuk undressed Malkin right before that. Because the announcers were making the comment that Datsyuk snuck in and took it away from Malkin and he returned the favor. So I guess that would be round 3 to Malkin while round 1 and 2 go to Datsyuk.

    And the Penguins are playing for the Stanley Cup!

    The Pens won last night a simple way. I don't know how anyone is surprised we've seen it in Detroit the past 10-12 years. They took the body when they had to, they played puck possession, they played their matchups, they gave up the body to block shots, and their defense helped out their goalie. Any of that sound familiar? Of course it does because it's the Wings playbook for the past decade.

    No matter how tough the times are...

    Gordie is one hell of a fan. I think it's Wings fans responsibility everywhere right now to let him now how much he means to us and let him know he's appreciated. If any of you guys see Gordie friday night be sure and tell him how much you appreciate what he's done for hockey, the city of Detroit, and the Red Wings

    And the Penguins are playing for the Stanley Cup!

    My prediction is neither Hossa nor Crosby will be a factor in game 7. They haven't been the entire series and that won't change with one game.

    Freep Article on Osgood

    Osgood spectacular in losing effort Well written article. Nice to see the players understand they let Ozzie down.

    Freep Article on Osgood

    Ozzie does sometimes come off as a little arrogant, but we don't know if that's taken out of context or what. He was probably pretty pissed too. I mean the man kept the Wings in it for the first 2 periods. That second goal was crap but there's only so much you can do when your team leaves garbage around the net.

    Katrina Hancock

    She's an average at best sports reporter that's female and easy on the eyes. They don't keep her for her astounding reporting. I like looking at her though

    Chance of winning Friday

    I'm a little uneasy. I'll say i'm at 80%. The first 10 minutes of the game will tell me everything I need to know about the other 50.

    Here's a thread for all the bandwagon jumpers

    I have no doubts Wings are going to win, but Hossa c'mon man step it up and earn a paycheck.

    Top 10 reasons Wings will win

    I agree with that statement. If they lose it will definitely be a case of the better team didn't win, but we aren't going to have to worry about that.

    Just a thought. The team that scores first is 5-1 this series. Just sayin
  24. MississippiWing

    A totally calm perspective.

    I have a couple of positives to add. Winning this cup is no longer about Hossa. Osgood should be the first one to get the cup after Lids because he has busted it every game of every series. No other player can say they have contributed what he has this year. Positives: 4th line worked: I felt like they really wanted it tonight sadly lines 1-3 didn't Helm is a man beast. He's not just trying to play for a spot next year, he's trying to play for a top 2 lines spot Zetterberg's a standup guy. That broken stick play was amazing. To think about all that had to go through his mind in that little window of time to make that happen. The penalty kill was on

    Clutch Player predictions

    sure I'll bite. Crosby will NOT come up big because Babs will realize his mistake and put Z on Crosby lockdown duty again. Datsyuk and Holmstrom are going to come up big in game 7. Hossa will be a ghost again but manage 2 assists.
