JaketheShark 0 Report post Posted May 4, 2007 As long as the West isn't represented by California I'll be happy. wings vs. sens Wings vs. sabres wings vs. rangers all three series would be exciting to watch. Ratngs wise, I think the NHL execs are salivating and possible orgasming to the thought of Det. vs. the Rangers. Execs excited over Wings vs. Rangers? What so they can see a 1.2 TV share instead of 1.1? Hardly the stuff of good orgasms. As long as no original six team makes it that will be good for hockey, they all have way too many Stanley Cups already. The SCF series I would most like to see is Sharks vs. Wings but that can't happen until next season at the earliest. Don't worry about the SCF, enjoy the series you have now, you are likely to get to see the cup winner playing on Saturday. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

RedLightGoesOn 81 Report post Posted May 4, 2007 I know Detroit vs NYR would be awesome, but I would love Detroit vs Buffalo, just because it will be great, and that if there is any year that the Sabres have a chance to win its this year. I hope the Sabres win just about the same as Detroit, they have played like they want it badly. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gcom007 1,465 Report post Posted May 4, 2007 Detroit vs. New York for sure...no doubt about it even from an objective, non-Wings fans perspective. You've got two original six teams, two huge hockey markets, stories to sell (Shanahan and history), New York City in general, easy travel, same time zone, so on and so forth...I thought at the beginning of the playoffs that it could be a great series but I didn't think it could actually happen and granted, we've still got a ways to go, it's nice knowing that it's a reasonable thought at this point.

Bannedforlife 403 Report post Posted May 4, 2007 Since I lived at MSU for 5 years and I have friends who know the Miller family, I have very mixed feelings about Buffalo, but I want to see the Wings play them. You don't want us to play Buffalo because your best friend's sister's boyfriend's brother's girlfriend heard from this guy who knows this kid who's going with the girl who is related to Ryan Miller? Sorry, I had to Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Wingsor 2 Report post Posted May 4, 2007 (edited) Detroit Red Wings, vs New York Rangers. My two favorite teams Det 1, NYR 2 Get to see Shanny and Avery again! Two of the greatest captains played in Det and NYR, Stevie and Mess (stevie turning the team around longest serving captain in any sport, and mess the only hockey captain to win with 2 diff teams) Both teams suffered through the eighties and turned it around with cups in the 90s. Joey Kocur and Ron Duguay bounced back and forth between the two clubs 2 or three times! Joey won with both! both teams are skilled, not just a bunch of thugs (the bobbly clarke philly mentality), neither are a trap team, and there is potential for a real exhibition of what hockey can look like if its played with skill, class and grit. very popular big market teams, both original six. My gf says their colors dont clash on the ice lol, it looks like a nice big american flag on the ice when they play eachother. i hope i can see a Det NYR cup before i die. lol Ive played way too many EA Sports games over the years hoping it would happen. Wings over Rangers in 7 OT. Edited May 4, 2007 by Wingsor Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
superstarsingh 23 Report post Posted May 4, 2007 The winner of the Sabres/Rangers series against the Wings. Either one of teh two would do, but I think I would rather see the Sabres against the Wings. My neighbour is a huge Sabres fan and if our teams met in the finals, we would turn our street into a war zone. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
