Hamilton and Toronto are really close to each other. By looking at a map, I'd estimate 50 miles? Edit: If he were to move a team to Hamilton, would they stay in the west? Would they move to the East? Who would go west for them? Just something to think about

No, it will be a team like Phoenix. Where hockey shouldn't ever have been. By the way, I realize you were being sarcastic

Thats Correct. Linesman cannot call penalties, with the exception of those stated above.

How are we the ones "scratching and clawing for something to hang our hats on" when you're team is still down 3 games to 2

Yeah we dominated. However, thats not the stat that matters. Wings in 6

We could have used him last night Triple overtime, game winning Stanley Cup goal.

Lilja and Lebda played 24:24 and 23:28 respectivly, in a game that went to triple overtime. Babcock was scared to play them.

QFT.... We were 1 for 6

Sure, the refs were poor. They made some very weak goaltender interfernce calls. Yes, they missed a lot of clutching, grabbing, etc. But you can't blame them for the loss. I realize it was a powerplay goal for the Pens but it was an obvious high sticking call. That is what lost us the game.

Exactly. Downey is not a playoff player. He is good at what he does. Which is sticking up for our skill guys during the regular season. We don't need anymore help getting penalties. Besides, Downey had 3 points in 56 games, all being assists.

Hank-Dats-Homer Huds-Flip-Mule Cleary-Drapes-Sammy Drake-Helm-Malts Thats what I would do to start off the game. If need be, splitting Hank and Dats up worked great last night. Cleary looked good with the Euro twins as well. Helm was flying last night. He may be earning top 9 minutes. I just don't see who would move down in his place. Edit: Defense I think Babcock might have been nervous to play Lilja. It just seemed like he wasn't out there very much last night. With a good rest I think it's time to put Cheli back in the lineup. Lids-Rafi Kronner-Stuart Lebda-Chelios

I blame Pierre for being in between the benches, and letting Sykora back up his statement

No, We won games 1 and 2. They won games 3 and 4. Then we won 5 and 6. We haven't yet closed out a series at home, Wings in 6.

Will you marry me, Gary?

A very weak attempt

Aren't you the guy who said he was "Done with the NHL?" You need to be easy there yourself. Anyways, back on topic, this is a Red Wings forum. What do you expect? Obviously there is going to be Crosby bashing. Sure, we may be a little bias, but Crosby and the Euro twins have two diffrent styles. One style is pure offense. The other is playing both ways. Edit: Grammer

You sir, are the tool. I believe the conspiracy talks were about extending the series, not Dallas over Detroit

I don't think the ice would be very good at all, by the time the second game started.

So your saying you can find a better penalty killer on the roster, that doesn't already kill penalties?

Off of memory... I don't think it was as many as forty. In fact, I think quite a few less. However, I could be wrong

Game 3- Mellon Game 4- Mellon Game 5- Joe Game 6- Mellon Game 7- Joe He said two games at home to games on the road. So it would have to go to a game 7

Whats up with the music? Edit: And its only on page 4

Thats alot more than 26

Anyone think ESPN will ever carry hockey again?

No there wasn't. Trust me I was at the game. The place was packed.
