Schneids_is_awesome 0 Report post Posted April 22, 2007 (edited) All the conversations going on about this game have been focused on the negatives: like Lebda's conscussion, Langkow's suckerpunch, Noodles' hack/wack/slash on Franzen. So I thought I'd bring up a huge positive for the Wings: Dan Cleary. The man has been amazing. When he went down in the second I was really worried about losing him for tomorrow night's game. His shootout goal was a beauty and his reaction was priceless. The story of Danny Cleary and not being wanted only a few short years ago to being a huge part of a team is a great thing to see. Now I avid Cleary fan, so I'd like to hear what everyone else has to say about the guy, beyond my biased mind. Plus, any others props you'd like to give to other Wings players. Let's focus on our teams huge win, not on Calgary's crapass, sore losing mentality. Edited April 22, 2007 by Schneids_is_awesome Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

vladyfan 0 Report post Posted April 22, 2007 I love him too. I heard one of the announcers a couple weeks ago say that he was the same sort of player that McCarty was... and it is true! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Agalloch Report post Posted April 22, 2007 If there was a Conn Smythe trophy handed out for each series, there's no doubt Dan should get the first one. He's been so amazing, not only this year in the playoffs, but last year as well. He steps up his play a ton in the playoffs. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Heroes of Hockeytown 694 Report post Posted April 22, 2007 He's my MVP so far. Yup. Nick, Pavel, and Draper have all been excellent, but none of them are on Cleary's level yet. He's playing waaay above his ability; it's all heart and hard work. I love him. DO YOU HEAR ME DAN?? SWEEEET LUUUUUV. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

datsyukiandeke 0 Report post Posted April 22, 2007 First time I saw Dan Cleary, was last year during the pre-season. I turned on the tv, just in time to see this "new guy" without a helmet on, just hustling around and kicking ass. Mickey Redmond just lovin the no helmet tenacity. Later he netted the shootout winner. (last pre season they did a shootout every game). Since that game I knew he was gonna be big for our team. Dan Cleary is so damn awsome! I love his heart. I love his tenacity. I love how he owns Phaneaf. I love how he played today. Danny for MVP! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MacAttack25 44 Report post Posted April 22, 2007 I think he's been our best player this series. He's been giving 110% every shift. Also, I've been very happy with Lilja's play since late in the regular season. Great turn around as far as his play has gone. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
