NeverForgetMac25

There's 2 minutes of my life I'll never get back. BTW, since when did Chelios become the most beloved Red Wing behind only Steve Yzerman and Gordie Howe?

My wife and I were laughing so hard at that interview. I've rewatched it like 5 times already and Babs was in fact, BADASS!

Regardless of the 2 goals, I thought Sammy was one of the best players out there last night. He was strong with and without the puck, was timely with his forecheck and was inteligent with his shot taking. Sidenote: Those that are saying that he won't be the LGW whipping boy for a while are kidding themselves. The next game he doesn't score or fires a shot that hits the goalie in the chest, this place will explode with "he sucks" comments.

Maybe I'm taking it out of context....my bad. I've just heard from too many elitist that have "been around for longer" or "have more posts". Obviously I just misinterpreted it....I'm just really needing the puck to drop right now.

What difference does it make? Does being a member of LGW in 2002 make you any more or any less of a fan? Does it make any difference that I was viewing this site before the forums were even introduced?

Not to be an ass, but its funny how you criticize people for not proof-reading their work when you ended up editing your initial post.

My new best on the Freep version:

939.6! I hit land mines the first four drops, bounced twice and then hit one more before coming to a stop.

To top of what HS said, no player is bigger than the team. Steve Yzerman wasn't, nor was Wayner Gretzky or anyone else you can think of. If you're a detriment to the team (regardless of past accomplishments) you shouldn't be playing.

You're off base. Imagine if someone told you to "chance it" because this is the SCF's even though you coming off a head injury. To top it off, this has nothing to do with being European. It's the doctors call, not Mule's. Franzen would've played Game 2 of the Dallas series had he not been forced out by the team's physicians.

I kind of figured, but better now than Games 3 & 4.

Yeah, but one will be doing it with a smile on their face.

I couldn't agree more. BTW, the Red Wings are better than the Penguins. DROP THE PUCK!

Don't worry, my initial post made me look silly.

748.3 on the gory version. That one's way more fun.

I'm calling BS to both of you! They say on the front page that you should post your score if you can get over 300. I doubt it goes much higher than 350.

317.1

This argument had nothing to do with the East vs. West. A Pens fan made a comment that the Wings beat up on the "weak" Central Division en route to their Presidents Trophy. I simply posted their record for all 82 games. Don't take it out of context. BTW, I agree....Drop the freakin' puck!

Matt, I think you forgot to add their home to the background. I've taken the liberty for you:

Wow, he/she stole picture number 13 of 28 from me.

Well to answer your question, they've put up atleast 5 goals in 4 of their 14 games (3 Games being 5 goals, and the 1 Game being 6 goals). Edit: Not that it was my argument with you to begin with, but just thought I'd post the numbers for those that were interested.

For the Penguins? The cost is the Stanley Cup.
