Kind of a watercooler like topic, but still funny none the less. I loled.

For the record the Hudler high-sticking penalty was a good call, it was also the same damn thing that happened to Lidstrom in game three though, were we got jack and s*** for a PP. That was the same game Gill injured Homer on another terrible none call. Also blowing a tire near Datsyuk is not a penalty, neither were either of our "goalie interference" calls in PP. The reffing has been brutal and is obviously trying to draw out the series by giving the Pens a clear edge, there's no way the team that has the puck as much as the Wings have should be absorbing so many penalties. P.S. Pens obstruct and interfere (especially interfere) just as bad if not far worse than the Wings, just our coach has something called dignity and won't go spoiling his diapers on live TV to get his way, though I wish he'd at least bring it up.

Not bad, win another and you'll have the privilege of being equal with us and forced to steal yet another undeserved victory in our house which I can guarantee won't happen again.

Pens ******* suck and can't win without the refs help, were the hell was that call when it happened to Lids, just hand Sid the cup already, sickening night.

gah internet freaking died on me and kept me out of this thread, oh well. I'm joining the legion of tomorrow morning work zombies I can see.

Our greatest glory consists not in never failing, but in rising every time we fall. The Wings will win the cup.

Yep, Wings pretty much proving they cannot close a series out at home, way to show support for the fans guys, just awesome.

Yeah I have to say the Wings look terrible so far this game.

Any chance that stranger who shot O'halloran in Detroit years ago and almost cost him his life was a time-traveling Wings fan from the future?

And the s***tist ref ever does not dissappoint! That loser needs to be fired.

Pens actually playing pretty good but not with thier heads to our fortune.

Can't believe I'm the first to comment on this, it's amazing!

My personal favorite little inspiration tidbit and something to keep in mind if or whenever we lose in general is, "Our greatest glory consists not in never failing, but in rising every time we fall."

Goosebumps just thinking about tomorrow. Wings going to close the door tomorrow night and with last change the Pens only functional line is going to be flat-lined. 4-1 Wings, both Franzen and Z scoring with Pens getting some fluky opportunity goal by one of their crappier players.

Nah, Jovo's got it sealed this year, Lilja must have stolen too many votes from Lidstrom

Because we all know Crosby was there six years prior when the ratings were last this high. You know when the Wings played Carolina.

No one, it crumbles in two as Lidstrom hands it off to Ozzie.

To be far we're judging them based on the finals audience, likely latent with heavy band wagoners who've just now started watching. Most Pen fans I've met seem to be decent folk.

Pretty much perfect

My exact reaction after the clock ticked 0:00 on our game 4 victory.

Great thread I say we all pool together some cash for this but the winner needs to video tape it for proof.

Holy crap, Anyone watching this EliteXC BS? I refuse to watch another Kimbo fight again. The guys not even top 100 and he wins the single worst stoppage in MMA history after a gift stand-up when Thompson had him in side mount, and lands a few powerless forearm punches for a stoppage after Thompson starts reengaging him? I thought his Bo Cantrell fight was an embarrassingly obvious work but this blows the roof off of that. In all seriousness Kimbo wouldn't beat a single guy in the UFC. A totally gassed Thompson who's a crappy MMAer in his own right and even worse on the ground takes him down easily? Please, he's an embarrassment to the sport and EliteXc should be ashamed.

What's Kid saying? I'm watching Kimbo/Thompson on CBS right now.

So basically, Pens played their best game of the series (last game we shot ourselves in the foot, Pens looked better today,) at home with their ridiculous streak, on choppy ice that was designed to slow our transition game down, with the refs responding to Michelle's bitching and raping us all night long, with us missing a top-line forward and we still outshoot, outplay and beat them. Amazing!

Pens chopped up the ice to slow down play to try and level out the playing field, it's actually a fairly common tactic in getting the most of home-ice advantage.
